Estimation of Ecloud And TMCI Driven Vertical Instability Dynamics From SPS MD Measurements - Implications for Feedback Control
We present analysis of beam motion data obtained in high ntensity SPS MD studies in 2009 and 2010. The single-bunch vertical E-cloud motion seen in parts of the bunch train after injection shows large tune shifts (roughly 0.02 above the 0.185 tune) developing between tail and head of unstable bunches. The unstable vertical motion has spectral content up to roughly 1.2 GHz and a quasi-periodic growth and decoherence relaxation oscillation effect is seen with time scales o... Show Full Abstract
We present analysis of beam motion data obtained in high ntensity SPS MD studies in 2009 and 2010. The single-bunch vertical E-cloud motion seen in parts of the bunch train after injection shows large tune shifts (roughly 0.02 above the 0.185 tune) developing between tail and head of unstable bunches. The unstable vertical motion has spectral content up to roughly 1.2 GHz and a quasi-periodic growth and decoherence relaxation oscillation effect is seen with time scales of hundred turns. Beam slice FFT and RMS techniques are illustrated to extract parameters important for the design of wideband vertical feedback system, such as a growth rates of unstable motion, tune shifts within a single bunch and characterization of the bandwidth of the unstable structures within a bunch. We highlight the impact of synchrotron motion and injection transients on a proposed vertical processing channel. We present our MD plans including the beam driving process, developments in reduced model / identification techniques to extract dynam- ics from experimental and simulation data.
