What is Plasma Physics Problem Set #7 about?
This document contains 3 physics problems related to plasma instabilities: 1) Calculating the potential field induced by a test charge inserted into a collisionless plasma. The solution shows that the potential asymptotically approaches the Debye shielding solution, even in a collisionless plasma. 2) Analyzing the "bump-on-tail" instability using a non-Maxwellian electron distribution function. The solution determines the unstable frequency and wavenumber ranges, and calculates the fastest growing mode.
