A very fast damping of beam envelope oscillation amplitudes was recently observed in simulations of high intensity beam transport, through periodic FODO cells, in mismatched conditions [V. Variale, Nuovo Cimento Soc. Ital. Fis. 112A, 1571–1582 (1999) and T. Clauser et al., in Proceedings of the Particle Accelerator Conference, New York, 1999 (IEEE, Piscataway, NJ, 1999), p. 1779]. A Landau damping mechanism was proposed at the origin of observed effect. In this paper, to further investigate the source of this fast damping, extensive simulations have been carried out. The results presented here support the interpretation of the mechanism at the origin of the fast damping as a Landau damping effect.

A new method for the measurement of loss factor for an rf cavity is presented. The method consists of measuring the above quantity by means of the detection of both the rf voltage induced by an electron bunch in the device under test and the bunch charge. The device to be investigated is a copper reentrant T-shaped cavity. The experimental results and their comparison with analytical and numerical results are presented.

Direct and exchange one-step transfer mechanisms have been investigated for the reaction ¹²C(p,⁶Li)⁷Be at E_p=40.3 MeV. The role of the ⁶Li+ ⁶Li clustering configuration for ¹²C is underlined.
