Emittance and Trajectory Control in the Main Linacs of the Nlc
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main linacs of the next generation of linear colliders need to accelerate the particle beams to energies of up to 750 GeV while maintaining very small emittances. This paper describes the main mechanisms of static emittance growth in the main linacs of the Next Linear Collider (NLC). We present detailed simulations of the trajectory and emittance control algorithms that are foreseen for the NLC. We show that the emittance growth in the main linacs can be corrected down to about 110%. That number is signi cantly better than required for the NLC design luminosity. Presented at the XVIII International Linac Conference (LINAC 96), Geneva, Switzerland, August 26-30, 1996 Work supported by Department of Energy contract DE{AC03{76SF00515.

Operation and Expected Performance of the NLC
‘The main linacs for the proposed Next Linear Collider (NLC) provide acceleration of up to 500 GeV per beam. The linacs operate in a regime where unavoidable imperfections and even natural ground motion cause significant emittance dilutions. In order to achieve the NLC luminosity goals, small emittance beams must be transported with an emittance growth of less than SLAC-PUB-7354 November 1996 O...
متن کاملEmittance Dilution Due to Slow Alignment Drifts in the Main Linacs of the Nlc
The tight tolerances in the main linacs of the Next Linear Collider (NLC) result in a large sensitivity of the beam emittance to slow alignment drifts. Once the accelerator is tuned, the optimized emittances must be maintained. Slow alignment drifts will make resteering and reoptimization necessary. The frequency of these linac reoptimizations is an important parameter that determines how well ...
متن کاملZDR - Simulation Studies of the NLC Main Linacs
This study was published as part of the Next Linear Collider (NLC) Zeroth order Design Report (ZDR) [1]. It addresses the problems of transporting very small emittance beams in the main linacs of the NLC. Several mechanisms of emittance dilution and correction are calculated in detail. The results demonstrate the feasibility of the NLC main linac design under the assumption that the speci ed de...
متن کاملBeam Loading Compensation for the Nlc Low Frequency Linacs
The NLC low rf linacs are heavily loaded by a beam of about 130 ns in macropulse length (90 bunches) and a current up to 2.75 Amps. Beam loading voltage generates a large energy spread along the bunch train. This energy spread is critical for lattice design and, if not properly compensated, induces emittance growth and in turn lowers the luminosity of the machine. In this paper, we study the AF...
متن کاملEffectiveness of Emittance Bumps in the NLC and USColdLC Main Linear Accelerators
We report on a series of studies on the effectiveness of closed orbit bumps in the linacs of the NLC and the USColdLC. In the first study, emittance dilutions of a pure-wakefield or pure-dispersion character are introduced in each linac, and a set of emittance bumps is tested to determine the most effective bump location in the linac, and the net effectiveness. In the second study, a more reali...
