Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory FERMILAB-Conf-96/340 Beam Beam Tune Shifts for 36 Bunch Operation in the Tevatron
نویسنده
چکیده
We are preparing to upgrade the Tevatron Collider from 6 to 36 bunch operation. The 36 bunches are in 3 “trains” of 12 bunches. The spacing between bunches within a train is 21 RF buckets (53.106 MHz) and 139 empty buckets separate the trains. Because the 36 bunches are not evenly spaced around the machine, the different bunches within a train pass the opposing bunches at different points in the ring and so feel different beam beam effects. Through most of the machine the beams have helical separation, so these are mainly long range beam beam effects. As a first, very simple step, we’ve looked at the differences in the tunes of the different anti-proton (pbar) bunches. During the 36 bunch studies in Fall 1995, we used a new tune measurement system to measure these in several different machine conditions. We compare these measurements to calculations of the tunes for a pbar with zero transverse and longitudinal oscillation amplitudes. We discuss experimental problems, and the assumptions, approximations, and effects included in the calculations. Our main intent is to gain confidence that we can accurately model beam beam effects in the Tevatron.

Twenty Years of Tevatron Operation
The superconducting Tevatron accelerator at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) has surpassed twenty years of operation. The Tevatron is still the highest energy particle accelerator in the world and will remain so until the commissioning of the LHC in Europe later this decade. The Tevatron has operated in a Fixed Target mode, accelerating a proton beam into stationary targets/dete...
متن کاملCompensation of Beam-beam Effects in the Tevatron Collider with Electron Beams
The beam-beam interaction in the Tevatron collider sets limits on bunch intensity and luminosity. These limits are caused by a tune spread in each bunch which is mostly due to head-on collisions, but there is also a bunch-to-bunch tune spread due to parasitic collisions in multibunch operation. We propose to compensate these effects with use of a countertraveling electron beam, and present gene...
متن کاملBeam Dynamics Group Summart
The CERN SPS was the first accelerator to store and collide hadron bunches protons and antiprotons in counter rotating beams. A relatively small number of bunches circulated in a single vacuum chamber, inside normal conducting magnets. Now used mainly as an injector to LEP, the SPS will become the final accelerator in the injection chain supplying the LHC with protons and, at least occasionally...
