Sumario:This report summarises the results of MD3308 on the measurement of the instability rise time as a function of chromaticity in the LHC. The measurement was held in the MD block 3 of 2018, on the afternoon of the 14th of September. With nominal bunches at the injection energy, the horizontal and vertical chromaticities were trimmed in the negative range from ∼-40 to -2 units. The transverse damper (ADT) was switched off to let an instability develop. The turn-by-turn position signal was then recorded with the ADT ObsBox. From these signals, the rise-time was deduced and compared to a prediction derived from the LHC impedance model.
