Title: Overview and Actual Understanding of the Electron Cloud Effect and Instabilities in the Future Linear Colliders

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/839810· OSTI ID:839810

The electron cloud is potentially an important effect in linear colliders. Many of the effects have been evaluated. Actions to suppress the electron cloud are required for the GLC/NLC positron main damping ring (MDR or DR) and the low emittance transport lines as well as for the TESLA damping ring. There is an ongoing R&D program studying a number of possible remedies to reduce the secondary electron yield below that required.
