This is the proceedings of the fourth school in a series of specialized

courses organized by CERN’s CAS and the American USPAS. It deals with

intensity limitations. The contribution thoroughly edited for this

publication fall into the following categories: self and environmental

fields - coherent instabilities and their simulation -

beam-beam interaction - other multi-particle effects - beam

source limitations - engineering limitations. This exposition of the

inner working of high-intensity particle beams addresses particle physicistsas well as those that commission new machines. The lecturers were chosenas being at the forefront of latest developments in this field.
