Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 6, 084402 (2003) [17 pages]Cumulative beam breakup in linear accelerators with arbitrary beam current profile
J. R. Delayen * Received 17 June 2003; published 27 August 2003 An analytical formalism for the solution of cumulative beam breakup in linear accelerators with arbitrary time dependence of beam current is presented, and a closed-form expression for the time and position dependence of the transverse displacement is obtained. It is applied to the behavior of a single bunch and to the steady-state and transient behavior of dc beams and beams composed of pointlike and finite-length bunches. This formalism is also applied to the problem of cumulative beam breakup in the presence of random displacement of cavities and focusing elements, and a general solution is presented. ©2003 The American Physical Society
