Abstract :
The rms beam envelope oscillations, risen from the mismatching of high intensity beams propagating along periodic focusing cells, can induce a halo formation. In some case, a very fast oscillation damping, due in all probability to a Landau mechanism of stabilization, can occur minimizing the halo extent generated. In this paper the possibility of using this fast damping to contain the halo formation on the beam during the transportation along periodic focusing cells will be explored and discussed
