This note presents a study of emittance growth in pbar extractions from the Accumulator stack to circulating beam at 8 GeV in the Main Ring, for shots 5480 to 5629 (Apr 17,1995 to July 23,1995). During this period several bouts of large emittance blowups were encountered. Emittance of the beam extracted from the Accumulator directly affects collider luminosity. The motivation for this work is that if the sources of emittance growth can be found and corrected, significant increases in luminosity can be expected. Even in different operating scenarios, such as with the proposed Recycler ring, emittance growth must be understood and controlled to prevent pbar losses on transfer to the Recycler.
