Collective wakefield and beam–beam effects play an important role in accelerator design and operation. These effects can cause beam instability, emittance growth, and luminosity degradation, and warrant careful study during accelerator design. In this paper, we studied the combined wakefield and beam–beam effects in an Electron Ion Collider design using strong–strong simulations. The simulation results show that the nonlinear beam–beam effects help suppress wakefield driven instability in the nominal working tune regime. In other tune regimes, the coherent beam–beam modes interact with the wakefields and cause a beam instability. The simulation results also show the importance of maintaining nominal crab cavity voltage. In conclusion, if the crab cavity voltage drops significantly the beam can become unstable.
