Title: TMCI and Space Charge

Journal Article · · TBD
OSTI ID:1508355

Transverse mode-coupling instability (TMCI) is known to limit bunch intensity. Since space charge (SC) changes the spectra of the collective modes, it affects the TMCI threshold as well. In agreement with results of M. Blaskiewicz and V. Balbekov, we found that, when the wake is negative or it essentially negative, the instability threshold increases as fast as the space charge tune shift when the latter is large enough. In contrast, for oscillating wakes, when the oscillations are sufficiently pronounced, the threshold dependence on SC is non-monotonic; at sufficiently high SC tune shift the threshold goes inversely proportional to that.
