Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 3, 091001 (2000) [5 pages]Transverse beam tails due to inelastic scattering
H. Burkhardt, I. Reichel, and G. Roy Received 7 December 1999; published 7 September 2000 Non-Gaussian beam tails producing low beam lifetimes and background to the experimental detectors can be a serious performance limitation in colliding beam facilities. We describe simulations and measurements of non-Gaussian beam tails performed on the e+e- collider LEP that revealed the importance of inelastic particle scattering as launching processes of particles to large amplitudes. ©2000 The American Physical Society
