Halo Formation of Bunched Beams in Periodic Focusing Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
A very critical design issue for high intensity proton linacs is to keep particle loss below 1 W/m at the high energy end and allow unconstrained hand on maintenance. Particle loss is caused by a small number of particles outside the dense beam core, called the beam halo. Halo formation of bunched beams in a periodic focusing channel is driven by mismatch, high space charge and temperature anisotropy. Unstable particles oscillate in all 3 phase space planes. Mode overlap due to large mismatch amplitudes can lead to a halo much larger than seen in uniform focusing systems. Resonance crossing due to acceleration is a possibility for designing high intensity linacs.

متن کاملHalo Containment through a Landau Damping Mechanism
The rms beam envelope oscillations, risen from the mismatching of high intensity beams propagating along periodic focusing cells, can induce a halo formation. In some case, a very fast oscillation damping, due in all probability to a Landau mechanism of stabilization, can occur minimizing the halo extent generated. In this paper the possibility of using this fast damping to contain the halo for...

A self-consistent two-dimensional model is used to investigate intense charged-particle beam propagation through a periodic solenoidal focusing channel, particularly in the regime in which there is a mismatch between the beam and the focusing channel. The present self-consistent studies confirm that mismatched beams exhibit nonlinear resonances and chaotic behavior in the envelope evolution, as...
