Recirculating beam-breakup thresholds for polarized higher-order modes with optical coupling

Here we will derive the general theory of the beam-breakup (BBU) instability in recirculating linear accelerators with coupled beam optics and with polarized higher-order dipole modes. The bunches do not have to be at the same radio-frequency phase during each recirculation turn. This is important f...
