IREAPIREAPSpace charge and emittance

(M. Reiser, Chap. 5)If linear space charge is included, then s→sand the function is no longer just a lattice function because it now depends on current also. becomes a lattice+beam function.

The emittance above is the effective or 4rms emittance (also called edge emittance) which is equal to the total (100%) emittance for a K-V distribution.

Further, adding space charge does not require changing the emittance definition…Emittance and current are independent parameters in the envelope equation:

For a Gaussian distribution, the total and RMS emittances are equal when the Gaussian is truncated at 1-

Without acceleration, rms emittance of a mono-energetic beam is conserved under linear forces (both external and internal):

nrms rmsε = ε

The normalized emittance is an invariant:

If initial transverse beam distribution is not uniform, rms emittance grows in a length of the order of p/4.

If initial beam envelope is not rms-matched, rms emittance grows in a length of the order of .

Define the beam matrix for, say, x-plane:

Consider 2 planes z0 and z1, z1>z0. Particle coordinates transform as:

β -=ε -

So beam ellipse can be written as 2 2x -2 xx +βx =ε T -1x σ x=1, Tx x, x

The condition iswritten

OTR ScreenAny mirrored surface. OTR maps beam in real time (fs response) with high spatial resolution. Good for any beam energy. Used in combination with PMT or CCD cameras. Low current beams require long int. times.

Standard CCDStandard, inexpensive (8-bit.) Can be intensified for extra sensitivity. Slow response.

Cooled CCD higher sensitivity + 16-bit.

Gated Camera0.1 ns time response possible. Expensive.

Streak cameras: pico-second time resolution.
