This article is devoted to electron beam distortions in the “electron compressor” setup for beam-beam compensation in the Tevatron collider. The effects of electron space charge force and the interaction of the electron beam with the impacting elliptical antiproton beam are studied. We make an estimate of the longitudinal magnetic field necessary to keep the electron beam distortions low.
