Longitudinal Losses Due to Breathing Mode Excitation in Radiofrequency Linear Accelerators

Accelerator Physics 2015-05-20 v2

Abstract

Transverse breathing mode oscillations in a particle beam can couple energy into longitudinal oscillations in a bunch of finite length and cause significant losses. We develop a model that illustrates this effect and explore the dependence on mismatch size, space-charge tune depression, longitudinal focusing strength, bunch length, and RF bucket length.
