EFFECT OF R.F. SYSTEM ON BETATRON OSCILLATIONS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4340325
The change in betatron frequency due to the focusing action of the radiofrequency cavities is calculated. It is found that at injection the fractional change in radial betatron frequency for particles wtth small phase oscillations is given by -0.025V, where V is the maximum r-f voltage per turn in Mev. There is an equal and opposite change in the vertical betatron frequency. Also it is proven, in a general manner, that the damping rate of the betatron oscillations is independent of the nature of the radiofrequency system. (auth)
