Schematic View of the Envelope Equations HOMDYN
Emittance Oscillations and Growth are driven by space charge differential defocusing in core and tails of the beam x px Projected Phase Space Slice Phase Spaces
Emittance Compensation: Controlled Damping of Plasma Oscillation (LS-JBR)
Gun Working Point
Linac Working Point The emittance compensation occuring in the booster when the invariant envelope matching conditions are satisfied is actually limited by the head and tail slice behavior
Homdyn movie
Head and tail slices carry the most pronounced energy spread
Simple Case: Transport in a Long Solenoid ==> Equilibrium solution ? ==> g()
Small perturbations around the equilibrium solution Same Plasma Frequencies Different Amplitudes
Envelope oscillations drive Emittance oscillations r(z) (z)
Bunch with a Linear Energy Spread Correlation
A Spread in Plasma Frequencies drives a Beating in Emittance Oscillations
On a longer time scale
increasing the initial envelope offset the emittance evolution is dominated by the beating term and the original minimum is recovered only after a longer period
Movable Emittance-Meter envelope Movable Emittance-Meter
