Simulations of the Tevatron beam dynamics with beam-beam compensation
- Fermilab
Compensation of beam-beam effects in the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider by using a counter-traveling electron beam is a subject of on-going experimental project at Fermilab. In this article, the authors present results of numerical tracking of the Tevatron particles in the presence of the beam-beam compensation setup. Their studies cover a wide range of issues relevant to compensation of the bunch-to-bunch tune spread (so called linear compensation): electron beam current distribution and size, straightness of the electron beam, misalignment of the electron and antiproton beams, the time to bring the electron and antiproton beams into collision, the effects of noise in the electron beam, and the effect on the proton beam.
