Hollow bunchesA. Blas, S. Hancock, S. Koscielniak, M. Lindroos, F. Pedersen, H. Schonauer • Why: to improve space charge related problems. • How: Increase the Imean / Ipeak= BF value by creating a hollow distribution in the longitudinal phase space A.Blas
Hollow bunches (history) • F. Pedersen (PSB 1978): h = 5 bucket deposit in a 50 MeV coasting beam and acceleration with h = 5 and 7.1010 p (no fast FB!) . • K. Schindl (PSB 1978): Use of dual harmonic debuncher in the Linac transfer line • Results: loss of hollowness when closing any loop. Abandoned because of the success of dual harmonic (h5 + h10) operation. • R. Garoby, S. Hancock (PS 1992): Phase shaking at ~ 0.94 fS and homogenization with 200 MHz cavity. Very successful from 1GeV to 26 GeV trough transition. • S. Hancock (PSB 1997): same method as above, but h=16 frequency control too poor at that time to get proper results. A.Blas
Pre-requisite • BTFM: longitudinal beam transfer function measurement (H. Schonauer, M. Sjöström) A.Blas

Conclusion • Bunching factor is increased 0.28 to 0.38 in the single harmonic case 0.45 to 0.55 in the dual harmonic case (values at 100 MeV) • Single harmonic acceleration was successful ...but loss of hollowness after 390 ms • Dual harmonic operation unstable ...from 50 ms to 250 ms A.Blas
