Measurement of the acceptance by means of transverse beam excitation with noise

In this work, we present a technique to measure the acceptance of a circular accelerator extending a previous method by the measurement of particle loss. Here, we apply an rf voltage to transversely excite a coasting heavy ion beam in the SIS-18 synchrotron at GSI. The resulting growth of the transv...
