Title: Coherent synchro-betatron oscillations excited by the beam-beam interaction

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5315233· OSTI ID:5315233

In this note, a third possible coherent instability excited by the beam-beam interaction will be discussed. This time it involves the longitudinal motion of the bunches. What is studied is the possibility of beam-beam excited longitudinal dipole oscillations or coherent synchro-betatron oscillations in which the longitudinal and transverse motions are coupled through the beam-beam collisions. We suggest that such modes of oscillations exist when there is a finite dispersion at the interaction point.
