Narrow band excitation simulations Hector Garcia Morales Royal Holloway University of London Joschka Wagner, Roderik Bruce, Stefano Redaelli

Motivation Motivation ● Experimental results (presented by Joschka) look promising but not fully conclusive (yet). ● To fully understand the results we need to understand the physics involved. ● Tracking codes (MADX, SixTrack) would give a more precise description but the physics of the narrow band excitation might be difficult to extract clearly. ● A simple model with the minimum physics could give a better understanding of the principle.

Simulation set up and limitations Simulation set up and limitations ● Set up – Allows to run an unlimited number of turns and particles. (<1ms/turn/part) – Allows fixed and scan – Allows frequency scan in steps or continuously – ADT amplitude ramp up and down ● Limitations – No chromaticity – No other nonlinear effects – No repopulation – ...

Simulation results (fixed frequency) Simulation results (fixed frequency) ● Q(ADT) = 0.295 (as in promising result) ● Npart = 1e5 ● Turns = 5e5 (45 sec in real time) ● 1sigma (nominal) and 2sigma (blown up) bunches

Simulation results (frequency scan) Simulation results (frequency scan) ● Q(ADT) = 0.290-0.295 ● Npart = 1e5 ● Turns = 5e3 (0.5 sec in real time) ● 1sigma (nominal) and 2sigma (blown up) bunches

Tail depletion Still some tail population Core affected

Initial vs final distribution Initial vs final distribution -Initial distribution -Particles which end beyond 5sigma

Losses and emittance Losses and emittance Although the core is clearly affected, the core emittance stays constant 1.8% particles lost (Not far from measurement results)

Conclusions ● The model shows some of the features expected from the narrow band excitation principle. ● Results for fixed frequency still not conclusive. Need to explore a bit more ● Results for frequency scan look promising but need to find a way to keep core unaffected. ● Complete simulation with toy model before using realistic tracking codes.
