Beam-beam interaction effects for separated beams in a proton-antiproton collider
نویسنده
چکیده
An investigation of the beam-beam interaction as a function of transverse separation of colliding proton and antiproton bunches is presented. A mathematical model describing resonant excitation of separated beams is examined. Beam-beam experiments in the Fermilab collider measure beam-beam resonant excitation ~particle losses! at different transverse beam separations in the storage ring. The experimental results are compared to simulated particle losses in a beam-beam simulation model. @S1063-651X~97!00503-5#

Experimental demonstration of colliding-beam-lifetime improvement by electron lenses.
We report the successful application of space-charge forces of a low-energy electron beam for improvement of particle lifetime determined by beam-beam interaction at a high-energy collider. In our experiments, an electron lens, a novel instrument developed for the beam-beam compensation, was set on a 980-GeV proton bunch at the Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton collider. The proton-bunch loss...
متن کاملCollimation with hollow electron beams.
A novel concept of controlled halo removal for intense high-energy beams in storage rings and colliders is presented. It is based on the interaction of the circulating beam with a 5-keV, magnetically confined, pulsed hollow electron beam in a 2-m-long section of the ring. The electrons enclose the circulating beam, kicking halo particles transversely and leaving the beam core unperturbed. By ac...
متن کاملBeam-beam Simulations for Separated Beams in the Lhc∗
We present beam-beam simulation results from a strongstrong gaussian code for separated beams for the LHC. We focus on the possible detrimental effects of the beam-beam interaction in cases when the beams are: (1) periodically swept about each other, and (2) brought into collision from separated orbits. For 10-turn runs we do not see significant emittance blowup for nominal bunch intensities, a...
متن کاملSummary of the Working Group on ‘beam–beam Experience in Hadron Colliders’
There were four presentations given during the session ‘Beam–beam experience in hadron colliders’, reporting the beam–beam observations in SPS [1], Tevatron [2], RHIC [3] and HERA [4]. Presentations were followed by discussions. Below we summarize the major observations, findings and results. BEAM–BEAM EFFECTS IN THE SPS PROTON–ANTIPROTON COLLIDER A rich set of observations and data were collec...
متن کاملMeasurement of the Spin–Dependence of the p̄p Interaction at the AD–Ring
We propose to use an internal polarized hydrogen storage cell gas target in the AD ring to determine for the first time the two total spin–dependent p̄p cross sections σ1 and σ2 at antiproton beam energies in the range from 50 to 450 MeV. The data obtained are of interest by themselves for the general theory of p̄p interactions since they will provide a first experimental constraint of the spin–s...
