  The transverse impedance of kicker magnets is considered to be one of the main beam instability sources in the projected SIS-100 at FAIR and also in the SPS at CERN. The longitudinal impedance can contribute to the heat load, which is especially a concern in the cold sections of SIS-100 and LHC. In the high frequency range, time domain codes are commercially available to calculate the impedance but they become inapplicable at medium and low frequencies. We present the ongoing work of developing a Finite Integration (FIT) solver in frequency domain which is based on the Parallel and Extensible Toolkit for Scientific computing (PETSc) framework in C++. The code is applied to an inductive insert used to compensate the longitudinal space charge impedance in low energy machines. Another application focuses on the impedance contribution of a ferrite kicker with inductively coupled pulse forming network (PFN) and frequency dependent complex material permeability. In future we plan to confirm our simulations with dedicated wire or coil bench measurements.

  The minimum transverse emittances achievable in a beam line are determined by the two transverse eigen-emittances of the beam. For vanishing interplane correlations they are equal to the well-know rms-emittances. Eigen-emittances are constants of motion for all symplectic beam line elements, i.e. (even tilted) linear elements. To allow for rms-emittance transfer, the eigen-emittances must be changed by applying a non-symplectic action to the beam, preferably preserving the 4d-rms-emittance. This contribution will introduce the concept for eigen-emittance shaping and rms-emittance transfer at an ion linac. A path towards the experimental demonstration of the concept at the GSI UNILAC is presented.

The Spallation Neutron Source accumulator ring was designed to allow independent control of the transverse beam distribution in each plane. However, at high beam intensities, nonlinear space charge forces can strongly influence the final beam distribution and compromise our ability to independently control the transverse distributions. In this study we investigate the evolution of the beam at intensities of up to ~8x1013 ppp through both simulation and experiment. Specifically, we analyze the evolution of the beam distribution for beams with different transverse aspect ratios and tune splits. We present preliminary results of simulations of our experiments.

  In this paper we study in an idealized lattice model the dynamical behavior of non-equipartitioned beams and of approach to equipartition. It is shown that emittance transfer depends on times scales of tune change, but also the direction of crossing the stopbands of space charge resonances. This provides additional information to support the stability charts suggested previously as design tool for high current linacs.

TUO3A03 Equipartition, Reality or Swindle? resonance, linac, emittance, space-charge 250

  By way of introduction to a general discussion on space-charge induced energy equipartition (EQP), the following questions will be tackled: Why the formula presently used to define EQP is wrong? Why energy exchanges can occur although the EQP rule is respected? Why safe tunings can be find although the EQP rule is not respected? Why EQP is a swindle for a large majority of our accelerated beams? Why LINAC designers nevertheless like to use the EQP rule?

  In circular accelerators, the beam quality can be strongly affected by the self-induced electromagnetic fields excited by the beam in the passage through the elements of the accelerator. The beam coupling impedance quantifies this interaction and allows predicting the stability of the dynamics of high intensity, high brilliance beams. The coupling impedance can be evaluated with finite element methods or using analytical methods, such as Field Matching or Mode Matching. In this paper we present an application of the Mode Matching technique for an azimuthally uniform structure of finite length: a cylindrical cavity loaded with a toroidal slab of lossy dielectric, connected with cylindrical beam pipes. In order to take into account the finite length of the structure, with respect to the infinite length approximation, we decompose the fields in the cavity into a set of orthonormal modes. We obtain a complete set of equations using the magnetic field matching and the non-uniform convergence of the electric field on the cavity boundaries. We present benchmarks done with CST Particle Studio simulations and existing analytical formulas, pointing out the effect of finite length and non-relativistic beta.

  Beta function and x-y coupling are measured using turn-by-turn monitor system in J-PARC MR. Errors of the optics parameters induce to undesirable resonances due to lattice nonlinear magnets and space charge force. We estimate the resonance strength and the degradation of emittance growth and beam loss.
