High-current, relativistic, electron streams with low energy of transverse motion under-go very tight pinching in high-density matter. Power flux densities of 10¹⁶ W/cm² are realizable from modest electron streams, 50-100 kA at several MV, interacting with solids. Both cylindrical and spherical self-generated interaction geometries obtain from conditions realizable by use of dielectric-rod cathodes.
