Abstract :
High current ion and electron beams are receiving increasing attention at present primarily because of their applications in fusion related studies. Thus they are used in neutral beam heating in magnetic confinement fusion machines. Particle beams are also of interest in plasma-wall interaction studies in fusion devices. They also have potential applications in laser excitation, microwave generation and in the study of collective ion acceleration. Beam focussing and transport are also of importance in all the above applications.
