Beam Distribution Function after Filamentation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we calculate the beam distribution function after filamentation (phase-mixing) of a focusing mismatch. This distribution is relevant when interpreting beam measurements and sources of emittance dilution in linear colliders. It is also important when considering methods of diluting the phase space density, which may be required for the machine protection system in future linear colliders, and it is important when studying effects of trapped ions which filament in the electron beam potential. Finally, the resulting distribution is compared with measured beam distributions from the SLAC linac.

Fluid description of collisional current filamentation instability of a weakly ionized plasma in the presence of magnetic field
In this paper, the collisional filamentation instability of an electron beam-weakly magnetized and ionized plasma has been investigated in the presence of background plasma, using the fluid description. By describing the equilibrium configuration in the presence of binary collision terms between charged and neutral particles and using the local approximation method, the dispersion relation (DR)...
متن کاملBeam Distributions Beyond RMS
The beam is often represented only by its position (mean) and the width (rms = root mean squared) of its distribution. To achieve these beam parameters in a noisy condition with high backgrounds, a Gaussian distribution with offset (4 parameters) is fitted to the measured beam distribution. This gives a very robust answer and is not very sensitive to background subtraction techniques. To get hi...
متن کاملCharacterization of the initial filamentation of a relativistic electron beam passing through a plasma.
The linear instability that induces a relativistic electron beam passing through a plasma with return current to filament transversely is often related to some filamentation mode with the wave vector normal to the beam or confused with Weibel modes. We show that these modes may not be relevant in this matter and identify the most unstable mode on the two-stream or filamentation branch as the ma...
متن کاملHoneycomb pattern formation by laser-beam filamentation in atomic sodium vapor.
We have observed transverse pattern formation leading to highly regular structures in both the near and far fields when a near-resonant laser beam propagates without feedback through an atomic sodium vapor. One example is a regular far-field honeycomb pattern, which results from the transformation of the laser beam within the vapor into a stable three-lobed structure with a uniform phase distri...
متن کاملTransient Response of the Beam after Injection . . . into a Storage Ring
The time evolution of the distribution function of a mismatched or an off-axis injected Gaussian bunch is derived from the Vlasov equation. Radiation damping as well as current dependent effects are neglected. Analytic expressions for the first and second moments of the longitudinal and transverse distributions are derived when nonlinear fields which lead to decoherence of the center of mass an...
