Abstract :
This paper describes the longitudinal expansion of a 10 keV, 100 mA electron beam in the University of Maryland Electron Ring. The expansion of the beam tail was found to be sensitive to the choice of transverse focusing settings due to the presence of an abnormality in the beam current profile. Expansion of the beam head, where no abnormality was observed, is in good agreement with the one-dimensional cold fluid model.
