STABILITY OF THE LONGITUDINAL BUNCHED-BEAM COHERENT MODES E. Metral (CERN/AB-ABP-HEI) • Introduction • Dispersion relation • Stability diagrams • Parabolic distribution • Gaussian distribution • Distribution used by Sacherer for his stability criterion • Analytical computations for an elliptical spectrum • Application to the LHC at top energy
INTRODUCTION • The most dangerous longitudinal single-bunch effect in the LHC is the possible suppression of Landau damping at top energy (7 TeV) • Consider the case of the LHC, i.e. an inductive impedance above transition It is said that “the coherent synchrotron frequency of the dipole mode does not move” Incoherent synchrotron frequency shift Incoh. spread How can the beam be stable ?
DISPERSION RELATION (1/2) Neglected in the following Resistive part of the impedance • Stationary distribution • Synchronous phase shift • Potential well distortion Emittance (momentum spread) conservation for protons (leptons)
DISPERSION RELATION (2/2) • Perturbation (around the new fixed point) Linearized Vlasov equation • Dispersion relation Sacherer formula Dispersion integral
STABILITY DIAGRAMS (1/6) • Parabolic • Gaussian Capacitive impedance Below Transition or Inductive impedance Above Transition Reminder
STABILITY DIAGRAMS (2/6) Approximated full spread between centre and edge of the bunch On a flat-top
STABILITY DIAGRAMS (3/6) • Sacherer distribution Sacherer stability criterion
STABILITY DIAGRAMS (4/6)
STABILITY DIAGRAMS (5/6) • Synchrotron amplitude distribution • Line density
STABILITY DIAGRAMS (6/6) • What is important for Landau damping (for dipole mode m=1) is

APPLICATION TO THE LHC AT TOP ENERGY (1/2) • The most critical case is the dipole mode m=1 with
APPLICATION TO THE LHC AT TOP ENERGY (2/2) • The previous stability criterion is the same as the one used by Boussard-Brandt-Vos in the paper “Is a longitudinal feedback system required for LHC?” (1999), with • Numerical application with the same parameters as the ones used in the above paper Same value as the one found by BBV
