Abstract

A modulated-bending recirculating system that avoids CSR-driven breakdown in emittance compensation by redistributing the bending along the beamline. The modulated-bending recirculating system includes a) larger angles of bending in initial FODO cells, thereby enhancing the impact of CSR early on in the beam line while the bunch is long, and 2) a decreased bending angle in the final FODO cells, reducing the effect of CSR while the bunch is short. The invention describes a method for controlling the effects of CSR during recirculation and bunch compression including a) correcting chromatic aberrations, b) correcting lattice and CSR-induced curvature in the longitudinal phase space by compensating T 566 , and c) using lattice perturbations to compensate obvious linear correlations x-dp/p and x′-dp/p.

Claims (7)

1. A method for controlling coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) effects on a charged particle beam during recirculation with bunch compression comprising:

providing a plurality of focusing and defocusing (FODO) cells arrayed in a recirculating arc including initial FODO cells and final FODO cells;

providing a larger bending angle in said initial FODO cells to enhance the impact of CSR early on in the beam line while the bunch is long; and

providing a smaller bending angle in the final FODO cells to reduce the effect of CSR while the bunch is short.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of said FODO cells are of uniform length.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of said FODO cells includes a length correlated to the dipole angle.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein said final FODO cells are of shorter length than the length of said initial FODO cells.
