Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 6, 034201 (2003) [7 pages]Electron cloud development in the Proton Storage Ring and in the Spallation Neutron Source
M. T. F. Pivi * and M. A. Furman † Received 8 October 2002; published 5 March 2003 We have applied our simulation code posinst to evaluate the contribution to the growth rate of the electron cloud instability in proton storage rings. In particular, we present here recent simulation results for the main features of the electron cloud in the storage ring of the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge, and updated results for the Proton Storage Ring at Los Alamos. A key ingredient in our model is a detailed description of the secondary electron emission process, including a refined model for the emitted energy spectrum, and for the three main components of the secondary yield, namely, the true secondary, rediffused and backscattered components. ©2003 The American Physical Society
