Transverse instability of electron phase-space holes in multi-dimensional Maxwellian plasmas
The stability of an initially one-dimensional electron hole to perturbations varying sinusoidally transverse to its trapping direction is analysed in detail. It is shown that the expected low-frequency eigenmode of the linearized Vlasov-Poisson system consists of a shift mode, proportional to the gr...
