Abstract

A brief discussion is given of the long-term stability of particle motions through periodic focusing structures containing lumped nonlinear elements. A method is presented whereby one can specify the nonlinear elements in such a way as to generate a variety of structures in which the motion has long-term stability.

Intense nonneutral beam propagation through a periodic focusing quadrupole field II--Hamiltonian averaging techniques in the smooth-focusing approximation

Journal Article Davidson, Ronald; Hong, Qin; Shvets, Gennady - AIP Conference Proceedings

This paper considers a compact Paul trap configuration to model the transverse nonlinear dynamics of an intense charged particle beam propagating through a periodic focusing quadrupole magnetic field in the collisionless regime. A long non-neutral plasma column (L>>r{sub p}) is confined axially by applied dc voltages V=const. on end cylinders at z={+-}L, and transverse confinement of the particles in the x-y plane is provided by segmented cylindrical electrodes (at radius r{sub w}) with applied oscillatory voltages {+-}V{sub 0}(t) over 90 deg. segments. Here, V{sub 0}(t+T)=V{sub 0}(t), where T=const. is the oscillation period. Neglecting axial variations ({partial_derivative}/{partial_derivative}z=0), the Hamiltonian describing themore »« less

Kinetic description of intense nonneutral beam propagation through a periodic solenoidal focusing field based on the nonlinear Vlasov-Maxwell equations

Technical Report Davidson, R; Chen, C

A kinetic description of intense nonneutral beam propagation through a periodic solenoidal focusing field B{sup sol}({rvec x}) is developed. The analysis is carried out for a thin beam with characteristic beam radius r{sub b} {much_lt} S, and directed axial momentum {gamma}{sub b}m{beta}{sub b}c (in the z-direction) large compared with the transverse momentum and axial momentum spread of the beam particles. Making use of the nonlinear Vlasov-Maxwell equations for general distribution function f{sub b}({rvec x},{rvec p},t) and self-consistent electrostatic field consistent with the thin-beam approximation, the kinetic model is used to investigate detailed beam equilibrium properties for a variety of distributionmore »« less

Linear beam stability in periodic focusing systems: Krein signature and band structure

Journal Article Chung, Moses; Cheon, Yoo-Lim; Qin, Hong - Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research. Section A, Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment

The general question of how a beam becomes unstable has been one of the fundamental research topics among beam and accelerator physicists for several decades. In this study, we revisited the general problem of linear beam stability in periodic focusing systems by applying the concepts of Krein signature and band structure. We numerically calculated the eigenvalues and other associated characteristics of one-period maps, and discussed the stability properties of single-particle motions with skew quadrupoles and envelope perturbations in high-intensity beams on an equal footing. In particular, an application of the Krein theory to envelope instability analysis was newly attempted inmore »« less
