WEBX06 | Analysis of emittance growth in the Fermilab Booster | 271 |

Multi-particle similations are performed to study emittance growth in the Fermilab Booster. Analysis shows that the sourcce of the vertical emittance growth comes mostly from random errors in skew quadrupoles as well as the transverse space-charge force. Random errors in the dipole fields and the Montague resonance do contribute but to a much lesser extent. The effect of random errors in the quadrupoles is small because the betatron envelope tunes are resonably far away from the half-integer stopband. |
