Although undesired in many applications, the intrinsic spurious spatial inhomogeneity that permeates real systems is the forerunner instability which leads high-intensity charged particle beams to its equilibrium. In general, this equilibrium is reached in a particular way, by the development of a tenuous particle population around the original beam, conventionally known as the halo. In this way, the purpose of this work is to analyze the influence of the magnitude of initial inhomogeneity over the dynamics and over the equilibrium characteristics of initially quasi-homogeneous mismatched beams. For that, all beam constituent particles, which are initially disposed in an equidistant form, suffer a progressive perturbation through random noise with a variable amplitude. Dynamical and equilibrium quantities are quantified as functions of the noise amplitude, which indirectly is a consistent measure of the initial beam inhomogeneity. The results have been obtained by the means of full self-consistent N-particle beam numerical simulations and seem to be an important complement to the investigations already carried out in prior works.

Beams of charged particles usually reach their stationary state by the development of a halo. Halo formation in charged beams is in fact a macroscopic transcription of microscopic instabilities acting inside the beam and upon its constituent particles. In previous works, investigations have been carried out to understand the role of the initial envelope mismatch and of magnitude of inhomogeneity in the beam route to the equilibrium. Although in that works the action of the mentioned instabilities has been studied individually, it is clear that in real implemented beams both act together. In this sense, the main purpose of this work is to generalize previous models, considering now concomitantly the effects of the envelope mismatch and of the inhomogeneity. As a final product of the investigation, a particle-core model for beam constituent particles is presented. The agreement with full self-consistent N-particle beam numerical simulations is satisfactory and the results provided by the model seem to be more compatible with that would be expected experimentally.

In this work the nonlinear relativistic propagation of intense lasers in plasmas is investigated. It is known that, under appropriate conditions, the ponderomotive force associated with the laser envelope can excite large amplitude electron waves (wakefields), which can be of interest for particle acceleration schemes. Numerical solutions showing some of the possible behaviors of this system are presented and compared to analytical ones, obtained through an effective potential approach using a one-dimensional Lagrangian formalism.
