  21. The values of FPG pulse droop as shown in Table 3 should be used to predict the magnitude of the residual deflecting E-field acting on the un-chopped beam bunches.It is clear that for the case of a unipolar AC coupled FPG, the duty cycle dependent baseline shift and the low frequency cut-off dependent pulse droop will give rise to a residual deflection of the un-chopped beam, and that this deflection will be opposite in polarity to the deflection of the chopped beam. If we assume that the baseline shift is small, then some form of electronic compensation may be possible, but it should be noted that if a specific chopping scheme calls for variable duty cycle chopping, as in the ESS scheme, then the electronic compensation will be required to track the change in duty cycle.Cancellation of the residual beam deflection due to pulse droop may not be practical or indeed possible, and so it is clear that the resulting residual deflection of the beam must be included in beam dynamics simulations of chopper beam lines and linac ‘end to end’ studies.
