A 1-MeV 40–80-kA 60-nsec 40-cm2 electron beam was injected into a 3-eV 2×1015-cm−3-density plasma. Plasma density and temperature within the beam channel were measured by Thomson scattering, and local time-dependent magnetic probe measurements were made across a plasma diameter. The observed plasma heating rate was an order of magnitude larger than can be explained on the basis of classical collisional processes.
