Description

We study the single particle and collective dynamics of a storage ring where the momentum compaction is made small to make it nearly isochronous, to reduce the bunch length and increase the peak current. We find that a quasi-isochronous ring makes it possible to obtain a bunch length in the millimeter range and to increase the beam longitudinal brilliance by more than one order of magnitude. (orig.)
