Ion-Induced Pressure Instability in Positively Charged Beams
Ion-induced pressure instability poses a threat to positively charged beams due to the formation of an ion cloud along their path. This instability leads to beam emittance blow-up and can be mitigated by improving pumping systems and utilizing ion collectors. The phenomenon involves the generation of electrons and ions from beam-induced gas ionization, resulting in electron clouds and gas desorption that impact beam stability.
