Beam transfer function measurements used to probe the transverse Landau damping at the LHC

The Landau damping mechanism stabilizes the impedance driven head-tail modes in hadron synchrotrons. Because of the frequent coherent beam instabilities observed in the Large Hadron Collider in 2012, the Landau damping of the beams was doubted. Therefore, a transverse beam transfer function (BTF) sy...
