1. Oliver Boine-FrankenheimSIS100-4: High current beam dynamics studies SIS 100 ‘high current’ design challenges o Beam loss in SIS 100 needs to be carefully quantified within 1% level o ‘Non-standard’ beam and machine parameters: Space charge tune shift -∆Q=0.2-0.3 during accumulation for 1 s (10 5 turns) The beam fills more than 1/2 of the elliptical beam pipe at injection Superconducting magnets with nonlinear field components Intrabeam and residual gas scattering for U 28+ beam ions High beam intensity and low momentum spread: tight impedance budget Electro-magnetic interaction with many ‘non-standard’ ring components Finally: bunch compression with extreme ∆Q for a few turns.
