Transverse Fast Beam Ion Instability 9 → The ions accumulate along one bunch train → Positive tune shift towards the tail of the train → Head and tail of the train are coupled through the ions (both in linear and circular machines). 9CLIC Workshop, 6 February, 2014
10 → The ions keep memory of the offset of the generating bunch and transfer this information to the following bunches. → The driven oscillation is expected to be at a main frequency related to the ion oscillation frequency. 10 Transverse Fast Beam Ion Instability CLIC Workshop, 6 February, 2014

I. Linear theory and simulations”, T.O. Raubenheimer, F. Zimmermann, Phys. Rev. E 52, 5, 5487
Observations in existing machines 12 o Fast Beam Ion Instabilities observed in APS (with He injection), PLS (with H 2 injection), SOLEIL, SSRF, BESSY II, ELETTRA, ALBA … o Usually not observed in regular operation, but: Artificially induced by injecting gas into the vacuum chamber and raising the pressure by more than one order of magnitude (for studies, see above) During commissioning/start up (chamber not yet conditioned, bad vacuum, feedback system not yet operational) Because of some local pressure rise (e.g., directly connected to impedance induced heating with high current operation, see next slides) o Seems to be less severe than predictions, probably stabilizing effects not included in existing models ? o Quantitative comparison between theoretical predictions, simulations and measurements yet to be made Experiment planned at Cesr-TA (April 2014) CLIC Workshop, 6 February, 2014
Observations (II) 13CLIC Workshop, 6 February, 2014 Ions enhanced by local heating (outgassing) seem to trigger some recently observed high current SSRF and SOLEIL
14CLIC Workshop, 6 February, 2014 mbtrack simulations suggest that SOLEIL instability results from an intriguing interplay between resistive wall, ion effect and transverse feedback Observations (III)
