We use electromagnetic Particle-in-Cell codes to investigate the two-stream
instability and Weibel instability when two beams of plasma collide head-on
relativistically. We compare the dissipation of kinetic energies in the two
cases. We also study the evolution of the resultant electron energy
distribution function produced by such dissipation.
