Ion effects on the scaling of magnetic field amplification in plasmas with the system size

Magnetic field amplification during the nonlinear stage of the current filamentation instability excited by ultra-relativistic electron beams is investigated with a two-dimensional electromagnetic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation code, with special attention paid to the effects of plasma ions and t...
