  We describe a new micro-bunching instability occurring in charged particle beams propagating along a straight trajectory: based on the dynamics we named it a Plasma-Cascade Instability. Such instability can strongly intensify longitudinal micro-bunching originating from the beam’s shot noise, and even saturate it. Resulting random density and energy microstructures can drastically reduce beam’s quality. Conversely, such instability can drive novel high-power sources of broadband radiation or can be used as a broadband amplifier. We present our analytical and numerical studies of this new phenomenon as well as the results of its experimental demonstration
