Abstract
Resistive hose growth for moderate or large skin depth differs from that derived from a conductivity model. Asymptotic growth is calculated for the Bennett equilibrium, incorporating the inductive component in the plasma return current, with phase mixing accounted for via the `distributed-mass' model. Analytic scalings are checked with numerical solutions of the linearized model. For a ratio of skin depth to beam radius of less than 1/10 the conductivity model appears quite adequate. When this ratio exceeds 1/4 inductive corrections appear.
