Accelerator physics

a transverse bunch instability driven by wakefields and chromaticity in which the head of a bunch drives motion of its tail.

In accelerator physics, head-tail instability refers to a transverse bunch instability driven by wakefields and chromaticity in which the head of a bunch drives motion of its tail. This meaning comes from Pellegrini (1969) in Il Nuovo Cimento A Series 10.[1]
