Accelerator Seminar - Experimental study of beam instabilities in the presence of strong space charge - Robert Ainsworth, Fermilab

3:30 pm MCP 201

Recent advances in the theoretical understanding of beam stability in the presence of strong space charge, has suggested a new class of instabilities known as convective instabilities. A novel approach to excite and study these instabilities will be to install a `waker' system, a dedicated wake-building feedback system. The System was installed in the Fermilab Recycler and commissioned during 2021. The first results are presented and future plans are discussed.
