Photoelectrons and Multipacting in the LHC: Electron Cloud Buildup
نویسنده
چکیده
A simple quasi-analytic model is developed for the dynamics of electron cloud generated by synchrotron radiation of the beam in the LHC beam pipe. The model allows to obtain a multipacting condition for the LHC parameters, takes into account the space charge effect and predicts an equilibrium density of the electrons. Based on this model, we find the electron lifetime and estimate the energy deposition of the electron cloud to the wall. We also estimate the emittance growth of the beam due to random fluctuations of the electric field of the cloud and find the growth rate of the beam instability caused by the electrons. ∗Address: Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, Stanford University, CA 94309 USA †Member of the collaboration to the LHC project.

متن کاملNumerical study of the photoelectron cloud in KEKB Low Energy Ring with a three-dimensional particle in cell method
124402-1 A three-dimensional particle in cell simulation code has been developed to study the photoelectron cloud instabilities in KEKB LER. In this report, the program is described in detail. In particular, typical simulation results are presented for the photoelectron motion in various kinds of magnetic fields. The simulation shows that a solenoid is very effective in confining the photoelect...
متن کامل1 . 1 Electron - Cloud Effects in the LHC
The LHC is the first proton accelerator for which synchrotron radiation becomes noticeable. At a beam energy of 7 TeV, the relativistic γ factor is comparable to that of electron or positron beams in the B factories or at many light sources. This means that the same number of synchrotron-radiation photons are emitted per proton and turn. The critical photon energy of about 44 eV in the LHC is n...
متن کاملElectron-Cloud Instability and Beam-Induced Multipacting in the LHC and in the VLHC*
fin the beam pipe of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), photoemission and secondary emission give rise to a quasistationary electron cloud, which is established after a few bunch passages. The response of this electron cloud to a transversely displaced bunch resembles a short-range wakefield and can cause a fast instability [l]. In addition, beam-induced multipacting of the electrons may lead to ...
متن کاملA Simulation Study of Electron-Cloud Instability and Beam-Induced Multipacting in the LHC
In the LHC beam pipe, photoemission and secondary emission give rise to a quasi-stationary electron cloud, which is established after a few bunch passages. The response of this electron cloud to a transversely displaced bunch resembles a short-range wake eld and can cause a fast instability. In addition, beaminduced multipacting of the electrons may lead to an enhanced gas desorption and an ass...
