The Ghost Train Instability (MDs 2066 and 2936)

This notes describes experimental studies of the octupole strength required to stabilise bunch trains at 6.5 TeV in the LHC, performed over 3 MD blocks in 2017. An instability affecting the bunches at the head of the train in the horizontal plane of B1 was observed and could not be stabilised with...

description This notes describes experimental studies of the octupole strength required to stabilise bunch trains at 6.5 TeV in the LHC, performed over 3 MD blocks in 2017. An instability affecting the bunches at the head of the train in the horizontal plane of B1 was observed and could not be stabilised with the maximum octupole current available in the first 2 MD tests. The instability was no longer observed in the last experiment in similar conditions. Eventually, the measured octupole threshold for 25 ns trains was found slightly above the single bunch stability threshold, within a factor ≈2.2 with respect to predictions based on the impedance model.
