Measurement by a wall current monitor Real signals may be attenuated by the loss in the cable > 100 m and limited band width of the WCM.
Beam loss: collective instabilities --- at random, a kind of positive feedback starting from a random seed direct space charge effects --- regular some mistake in parameterrs --- regular (B, f RF, tune, …)

Beam response and Landau damping Driving force Response
Driving force Response of the beam Absorbed power by the beam The beam: ensemble of the particles Frequency distribution: The beam motion approaches steady oscillation. Velocity d /dt: in phase with the force Work is done on the beam Absorbed power by the beam: constant Stored energy in the beam: Macroscopic aspect: a beam driven by a force approaches steady oscillation.
