A nonlinear mechanism for virtual cathode oscillations is derived from an analysis of a cold plasma fluid model. Frequency scalings and field wave shapes are predicted. These are compared with extensive numerical simulation studies of non-neutral electron beams using both one- and two-dimensional particle-in-cell codes.
