We report on measurements of electron cloud (EC) induced tune shifts and emittance growth at the Cornell Electron-Positron Storage Ring Test Accelerator (CesrTA) with comparison to tracking simulation predictions. The simulations are based on a weak-strong model of the interaction of the positron beam (weak) with the electron cloud (strong), using electric fields computed with established EC buildup simulation codes (ECLOUD). Experiments were performed with 2.1 GeV positrons in a 30 bunch train with 14 ns bunch spacing and 9 mm bunch length, plus a witness bunch at varying distance from the train to probe the cloud as it decays. Measurements of the horizontal and vertical coherent tune shifts and horizontal and vertical bunch size were obtained for a range of train and witness bunch currents, and compared to simulations.

Following up on our 2013 and 2014 measurements of electron cloud trapping in a quadrupole magnet with 7.4~T/m gradient in the 5.3~GeV positron storage ring at Cornell University, we have redesigned the shielded-stripline time-resolving electron detector and installed a wide-aperture quadrupole magnet at a location in the ring where its field can be compensated by a nearby quadrupole, thus allowing the first measurements of cloud trapping as a function of field gradient. The transverse acceptance of the electron detector has been tripled, allowing tests of model predictions indicating a dramatic cloud splitting effect which exhibits a threshold behavior as a function of bunch population. In addition, a vacuum chamber optimized for cloud buildup measurements using resonant microwave phenomena has been employed. We describe design considerations and modeling predictions for the upcoming 2016 data-taking run. This project is part of the CESR Test Accelerator program, which investigates performance limitations in low-emittance storage and damping rings.
