Abstract :
The ability of existing analytical and numerical tools to predict beam performance at the short bunch lengths and high peak currents characteristic of contemporary accelerator designs is discussed. Recent advances in calculating the high frequency behavior of impedance and in describing bunched-beam collective dynamics are highlighted. A critical review is presented of outstanding problems that must be addressed before a thorough description of short, intense bunches is obtained.<>
