Interaction of crystalline beams with a storage ring lattice

  • 1. GSI Darmstadt (Germany, F.R.)

Description

We present the results of numerical calculations for beams in realistic storage ring lattices under conditions, where crystalline order could be expected, at least in principle. In particular we discuss the effect of space charge, envelope instabilities, bending magnets and of cooling strength. Our conclusions on the lattice design require high symmetry and a small betatron tune. For three-dimensional ordering we find in addition that typically an e-folding of cooling is necessary after each bending section. The formation of order in a one- dimensional chain puts no restriction on the lattice, and a fraction of an e-folding of cooling once per revolution has been found sufficient. (orig.)
