$29 Stacking Cycles • Typical stacking intensities are 4.5-4.8E12 • We have performed a series of emittance measurements to understand the beam quality at injection and extraction. • There is a 20% horizontal emittance blow-up through the cycle and a factor of 2 blow-up in the longitudinal emittance mostly at transition.

$2B Proton Coalescing Cycles • Currently we are coalescing 7 Booster bunches into one bunch with typical intensities of 280-320 E9 ppp. • Typical coalescing efficiencies are 75-80% with 12-15% in DC beam and 8-10% in sattelites. • Booster mode dampers are essential for the $2B operation at high intensities. • Dispersion has to be taken into account when we calculate the horizontal emittance of the coalesced beam. • There is a 20% blow-up in transverse emittance and a 30% in the longitudinal emittance through the cycle.

$2A Pbar Coalescing Cycle • Currently we are accelerating and coalescing 4 pbar batches of 7-11 bunches each. • The Acceleration efficiency is greater than 99% and the coalescing efficiency varies between 65-90% depending on the longitudinal emittance of each pbar batch. • There is 20% horizontal emittance blow-up through the cycle while the longitudinal emittance blow-up varies between 30-60%. • Beam loading during coalescing is affecting the longitudinal emittances of the pbar bunches.

Feed-Forward Beam Loading Compensation • Recently we implemented feed-forward beam loading compensation in all 18 53Mhz rf stations. • Currently the compensation is operational at 150 GeV during proton coalescing and provides 20-25 db reduction to beam loading. • Leakage through the up-convert module currently prevents us from turning off the 53 MHz stations during the second segment of coalescing (2.5 MHz rotation). • We have started studies in order to implement the feed-forward during pbar coalescing.

Future Studies and Plans • Understand and Correct the Horizontal Emittance Blow-up during Acceleration. • Measure the horizontal emittance during acceleration using flying wires and ion profile monitors. • Calibrate and measure the tunes through the $29 and $2B cycles. • Understand and Correct the Longitudinal Emittance Blow-up. • Debug the feed-forward Beam Loading Compensation and make it operational during Proton and Pbar Coalescing.
