rf barrier compression with space charge

Because of the long synchrotron period between the two barriers, bunch compression in a barrier bucket is usually relatively slow. The conservation of the phase space area requires that the compression is performed adiabatically, that is much slower than the synchrotron period. We will show that the...

description Because of the long synchrotron period between the two barriers, bunch compression in a barrier bucket is usually relatively slow. The conservation of the phase space area requires that the compression is performed adiabatically, that is much slower than the synchrotron period. We will show that the presence of longitudinal space charge can considerably improve the efficiency of the barrier compression. An optimized scheme using a novel “shock” compression is presented. The corresponding analytic model relies on the exact solution for shock waves in a cold beam. Results obtained from this model are compared with Vlasov simulations.
