Abstract

A brief and qualitative overview is given of the various intensity limitations that occur in particle accelerators. The aim is to make the participants aware of what is happening in this field in terms of observation, mitigation, and understanding. Such an overview cannot be rigorous nor complete. It serves as an introduction to the lectures on the different topics.
