Electron Cloud at Low Emittance in Cesrta*
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) has been reconfigured as a test accelerator (CesrTA) for a program of electron cloud (EC) research at ultra low emittance. The instrumentation in the ring has been upgraded with local diagnostics for measurement of cloud density and with improved beam diagnostics for the characterization of both the low emittance performance and the beam dynamics of high intensity bunch trains interacting with the cloud. A range of EC mitigation methods have been deployed and tested and their effectiveness is discussed. Measurements of the electron cloud’s effect on the beam under a range of conditions are discussed along with the simulations being used to quantitatively understand these results.

This paper presents recent observations obtained on the study of electron cloud induced instabilities and emittance growth on positron beams at the Cornell Electron-Positron Storage Ring Test Acceleartor (CesrTA), and the simulation of these phenomena under similar beam conditions using the program CMAD. Results show that the transition to large bunch oscillations ocurrs at similar electron clo...

Electron clouds can adversely affect the performance of accelerators, and are of particular concern for the design of future low emittance damping rings. Studies of the impact of electron clouds on the dynamics of bunch trains in Cesr have been a major focus of the Cesr Test Accelerator (CesrTA) program. In this paper, we report measurements of coherent tune shifts, emittance growth, and cohere...

The Cornell Electron Storage Ring has been reconfigured as a test accelerator (CesrTA) for damping ring R&D for the International Linear Collider (ILC). As part of the research effort, low emittance tuning techniques are being developed with a goal of achieving a vertical emittance approaching that of the ILC damping rings. These techniques include gain mapping to characterize beam position mon...
