Longitudinal plasma oscillations are becoming a subject of great interest for XFEL physics in connection with LSC microbunching instability[1] and certain pump-probe synchronization schemes[2]. In the present paper we developed the first exact analytical treatment for longitudinal oscillations within an axis-symmetric, (relativistic) electron beam, which can be used as a primary standard for benchmarking space-charge simulation codes. Also, this result is per se of obvious theoretical relevance as it constitutes one of the few exact solutions for the evolution of charged particles under the action of self-interactions.
