TMCI with Resonator Wakes


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Transverse mode-coupling instability (TMCI) with a high-frequency resonator wake is examined by the Nested Head-Tail Vlasov solver (NHT), where a Gaussian bunch in a parabolic potential (GP model) is represented by concentric rings in the longitudinal phase space. It is shown that multiple mode couplings and decouplings make impossible an unambiguous definition of the threshold, unless Landau damping is taken into account. To address this problem, instead of a single instability threshold, an interval of thresholds is suggested, bounded by the low and high intensity ones. For the broadband impedance model, the high intensity threshold is shown to follow Zotters scaling, but smaller by about a factor of two. The same scaling, this time smaller than Zotters by a factor of four, is found for the ABS model (Air Bag Square well).
