A feedback for longitudinal instabilities in the SLC damping rings
PDF Version Also Available for Download.
Description
Longitudinal coupled bunch instabilities which are being observed in the SLC Damping Rings present a serious limitation to the ultimate luminosity of the colliding beams. It has been observed at intensities above 1 {times} 10{sup 10} particles per bunch with growth rates of the order of 10{sup 4} per second. At lower intensities we were able to control the growth by detuning the RF cavity through temperature or voltage changes. As the SLC operating intensity approaches the design value above 5 {times} 10{sup 10}, a more fundamental cure is definitely needed. In this report we sum up the studies done ...

As the SLC operating intensity approaches the design value above 5 {times} 10{sup 10}, a more fundamental cure is definitely needed. In this report we sum up the studies done so far in characterizing and simulating this instability and the proposed remedies. 1 ref., 7 figs., 5 tabs.
