Intensity Pressure rise at Bo11

• Pressure rise & interlock when the bunch spacing is halved • Total intensity reaching only 60% before pressure rise occurs (courtesy RHIC crew; S.Y. Zhang) Jie Wei, April 2002, CERN

Electron-cloud phenomena: AGS Booster

• Vertical instability occurs only when the beam is debunched • 10% slow loss in 1 ms, then 60% fast loss in tens of µs (courtesy M. Blaskiewicz) Jie Wei, April 2002, CERN

Electron generation • PSR e-flux measure – High electron concentration near injection & extraction – Electron wallstriking level to be distinguished from electron neutralization level in the bunch

• Major sources of electrons in a high-intensity ring – – – –

From stripping foil (H-, H0) Proton striking collimators or aperture bottleneck Gas ionization, ion desorption, electron desorption Beam-induced electron multipacting

Electron generation: H- (H0) injection • Stripping-foil generated electrons – Stripped electrons » 100% (H0) – 200% (H-); same γ and emittance as injecting beam » Intense, localized high-energy electrons – Foil-secondary and knock-on electrons » Low one-pass yield » Proportional to number of foil traversal (SNS: average 6 hits) – Thermionic electrons

• Back-scattered electrons PSR H0 injection with average 300 foil traversal

Damages due to stripped electrons • PSR – 80 W beam in a small area – Needs watercooled Cu collector

• SNS – 3 kW beam in a [cm2] area – Needs special collector material » Heat resistant » Shock resistant » Light density for reduced back-scattering

Designed to absorb 2 – 10 kW (0.1% -- 0.5%) proton beam loss Beam halo at large grazing angle enhances electron production Possible saw-tooth surface complicated by proton stopping distance Possible magnetized surface proposed at LANL Rely on two-stage collimation for a large impact distance

BNL’s Tandem study on grazing angle

Measured at BNL’s Tandem for 3 ion species – Confirmed dependence on grazing angle (0 – 89o) – Confirmed benefit of sawtoothed surface – Energy dependence not verified; expecting peaked at Emax~0.7 MeV

Ionization and desorption • Electron production due to ionization is proportional to vacuum pressure, average beam current, and ionization cross section

d 2λe ρ m βIσ ion P = dtds e

– Molecular density ρm=3.3x1022 m-3 at 300 K – Ionization cross section σion=2 Mbarn = 2x10-22 m2 – Pressure P [Torr]

• Rate of ion or electron desorption is proportional to the number of ion or electron hitting surface – resulting in pressure run-away

Beam-induced electron multipacting • Multi-bunch multipacting – Sensitive to bunch spacing and parameter configuration (e.g., O. Grobner, 1998)

– Short-bunch regime
