The Tevatron bunch by bunch longitudinal dampers

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/801453· OSTI ID:801453

We describe in this paper the Tevatron bunch by bunch dampers. The goal of the dampers is to stop the spontaneous longitudinal beam size blowup of the protons during a store. We will go through the theory and also show the measured results during the commissioning of this system. The system is currently operational and have stopped the beam blowups during a store.
