Space-charge-sustained microbunch structure in the Los Alamos Proton Storage Ring

We present experimental data from the Los Alamos Proton Storage Ring (PSR) showing long-lived linac microbunch structure during beam storage with no rf bunching. Analysis of the experimental data and particle-in-cell simulations of the experiments indicate that space charge, coupled with energy spre...
