TI - Applications of PLACET2 to the CTF3 Combiner Ring J2 - Proc. of IPAC2015, Richmond, VA, USA, May 3-8, 2015 C1 - Richmond, VA, USA T2 - International Particle Accelerator Conference T3 - 6 LA - english AB - The CTF3 Combiner Ring (CR) is an isochronous ring that employs RF-injection to combine multiple bunch trains (up to five) into a single one with higher bunch frequency. The length of the CR plays a critical role in obtaining the correct structure of the recombined train. PLACET2: the new recirculating version of the code PLACET is particularly suited to simulate the operational scenario. In order to validate this code, three different case studies have been considered: ring-length variations due to energy detuning, fast-beam decoherence due to uncorrected chromatic effects and vertical instabilities due to bunch-to-bunch wakefield effects. The first two effects have been measured during the last run and the predictions have been validated. The instability has been compared with previous studies. The results are presented and discussed.
