Microwave Instability Simulations for NSLS-II
Potential-well distortion and the microwave instability in the NSLS-II storage ring are investigated. The longitudinal wakepotential is calculated as a sum of the contributions due to vacuum chamber components distributed around the ring. An approximation to the wakepotential for a 0.05-mm charge distribution length, much shorter than the 4.5-mm length of the unperturbed circulating bunch, is used as a pseudo-Green's function for beam dynamics simulations. Comparison of particle tracking simulations using the TRANFT code with the Haissinski solution shows good agreement below the instability threshold current. Above threshold two regimes are observed: (1) energy spread and bunch length are time-dependent (saw tooth behavior); (2) both are time-independent.
