Driving the Electron-Cloud Instability by an Electron Cooler

We have studied the possibility to detune an electron cooler in order to have a high-current single bunch go through a controlled electron cloud of known density. This experiment could provide information on the electron cloud instability like its dependence on chromaticity, beam size, beam energy,...

Sumario:We have studied the possibility to detune an electron cooler in order to have a high-current single bunch go through a controlled electron cloud of known density. This experiment could provide information on the electron cloud instability like its dependence on chromaticity, beam size, beam energy, and bunch length, and permit a calibration of the simulation code. We present simulation results for the SIS (Heavy-Ion Synchrotron) ring of GSI, equipped with
