  • Abstract
    The stability criterion for the longitudinal microwave instability in bunched lepton beams is derived using the mode-coupling formalism and taking into account the potential-well distortion. The new formula yields an intensity threshold which can be higher than the one given by the Keil-Schnell-Boussard approximation by a large factor. This result may explain why the classical instability threshold has been exceeded in some lepton machines.
