Design and initial results of a turn-by-turn beam position monitoring system for multiple bunch operation of the ATF damping ring

An FPGA-based monitoring system has been developed to study multi-bunch beam instabilities in the damping ring (DR) of the KEK Accelerator Test Facility (ATF), utilising a stripline beam position monitor (BPM) and existing BPM processor hardware. The system is designed to record the horizontal and/o...
