Title: Betatron stochastic cooling in the Debuncher: Present and future

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10110730· OSTI ID:10110730

A detailed study of the betatron stochastic cooling in the Debuncher is presented. First, a complete theoretical model including the emittance-dependent signal-to-noise ratio as well as time-dependent mixing is constructed. The emittance measurements in the Debuncher are described and it is shown that the model is in excellent agreement with the experimental data. The idea of gain shaping is proposed and it is shown that the gain shaping would improve the cooling of the beam. Several proposals for future improvements are studied and appraised, in particular, gain shaping, ramped {eta}, and cryogenic and ``smart`` pickups and kickers. Finally, the demands which the Main Injector will impose on the Debuncher are analyzed and a design of the betatron stochastic cooling system for the Main Injector era is outlined.
