Abstract
We report experimental results of hydrogen-plasma heating using very intense relativistic electron beams with up to 10. The beam-plasma interaction process is found to be plasma-return-current heating with strongly anomalous plasma resistivity. Peak plasma energy is 1.5× eV/, corresponding to keV at .
