  A transversely kicked bunch will decohere due to, among other things, chromatic and amplitude-dependent tune shifts. The chromatic tune shift leads to correlation between transverse and longitudinal phase space. Such a correlation can be used for compressing synchrotron radiation of the bunch with adequate optics. In this report, we revise the decoherence calculation to derive the centroid and second moments of a beam slice in a kicked bunch, taking into account chromatic and nonlinear decoherence, but neglecting wakefield and radiation damping, etc. A simple formula for estimating slice bunch length (and potential pulse compression ratio) is given for the ideal situation.

  The Intense Pulsed Neutron Source (IPNS) at Argonne National Laboratory is a national user facility for neutron scattering. Neutrons are produced by 70 ns pulses of protons (~3x 1012 protons per pulse) impacting a depleted-uranium target at a pulse repetition rate of 30 Hz. Three accelerators in series (a 750 keV Cockcroft-Walton, 50 MeV Alvarez linac accelerating H- ions, and a 450 MeV rapid-cycling proton synchrotron) provide the beam that is directed to the target. New diagnostics and a third rf cavity that can be operated at either the fundamental or second harmonic of the ring frequency have recently been installed and an experimental program established to try to gain understanding of an instability that limits the charge-per-bunch in the RCS. This program will be described, and preliminary results presented.
