| MOPLS032 | Beam-beam Limit and the Degree of Freedom | 616 |
|
||
| Beam-beam limit is caused by chaotic diffusion due to the strong nonlinear force of beam-beam interaction. Degree of freedom in the colliding system is essential for the diffusion. We discuss the diffusion using several models. | ||
| MOPLS033 | Beam-beam Limit and Feedback Noise | 619 |
|
||
| Beam-beam interaction is strongly nonlinear, therefore particles in the beam experience chaotic motion. A small noise can be enhanced by the chaotic nature, with the result that unexpected emittance growth can be observed. We study the noise of transverse bunch by bunch feedback system and related luminosity degradation. Similar effects caused by crab cavity noise is also discussed. | ||
| THPCH049 | Simulation Study of Transverse Coupled-bunch Instabilities due to Electron Cloud in KEKB LER | 2895 |
|
||
| In this paper we report simulation results on the transverse coupled-bunch instabilities (TCBI) due to electron cloud at the KEKB Low Energy Ring (LER). The formation of electron cloud and related TCBI is investigated based on realistic solenoid field model. Studies on electron cloud in Quadrupole which could induce TCBI are also presented in this paper. | ||
| THPCH050 | Further Studies on Betatron Sidebands due to Electron Clouds | 2898 |
|
||
|
We have observed vertical betatron sidebands in the transverse beam spectra of positron bunches at the KEKB LER which are associated with the presence of electron clouds in single-beam studies*, and which are also associated with a loss of luminosity when the KEKB beams are in collision**. The sidebands may be signals of a fast head-tail instability due to short-range wakes within the electron cloud, providing a diagnostic for exploring the mechanism for transverse beam blow-up due to electron clouds. We report here on further studies on the behavior of the sidebands under varying beam conditions, including varying initial beam size below the beam blow-up threshold, chromaticity, RF voltage and fill pattern.

| THPCH075 | Simulation of the Electron Cloud for Various Configurations of a Damping Ring for the ILC | 2958 |
|
||
| In the beam pipe of the Damping Ring (DR) of the International Linear Collider (ILC), an electron cloud may be first produced by photoelectrons and ionization of residual gasses and then increased by the secondary emission process. This paper reports about the work that has been done by the electron cloud assessment international task force group for the recommendation of the ILC Damping Rings baseline design, made in November 2005. We have carefully estimated the secondary electron yield (SEY) threshold for electron cloud build-up and estimated the related single- and coupled-bunch instabilities that can be caused by the presence of electron cloud as a function of beam current and surface properties, for a variety of optics designs. The result of these studies was an important consideration in the choice of a 6-km design for the ILC damping rings. On the basis of the theoretical and experimental work, the baseline configuration specifies a pair of damping rings for the positron beam to mitigate the effects of the electron cloud. | ||

|
||
| In the framework of the CARE HHH European Network, we have developed a web-based dynamic accelerator-physics code repository. We describe the design, structure and contents of this web repository, illustrate its usage, and discuss our future plans. |
