Acceleration and Electro-Magnetic Radiation
An accelerating charge emits Electro-Magnetic waves.
Example:
An antenna is fed by an oscillating current and it emits
electro magnetic waves.
In our accelerator we know to types of acceleration:
Longitudinal – RF system
Transverse – Magnetic fields, dipoles, quadrupoles, etc..
Force due to magnetic field

Rate of EM radiation
The rate at which a relativistic lepton radiates EM
energy is :
Force // velocity
Longitudinal  square of energy (E2)
Force  velocity
Transverse  square of magnetic field (B2)
PSR  E2 B2
In our accelerators:
Transverse force > Longitudinal force
Therefore we only consider radiation due to ‘transverse
acceleration’ (thus magnetic forces)

What about the synchrotron oscillations ?
The RF system, besides increasing the energy has to
make up for this energy loss u.
All the particles with the same phase, , w.r.t. RF
waveform will have the same energy gain E = Vsin
However,
Lower energy particles lose less energy per turn
Higher energy particles lose more energy per turn

All three particles will gain the same energy from the

The black particle will lose more energy than the red
one.
This leads to a reduction in the energy spread,
since u varies with E4.

Longitudinal damping in numbers (1)
Remember how we calculated the synchrotron
frequency.
It was based on the change in energy: dE  V sin 
Now we have to add an extra term, the energy loss du

becomes

Damping of the energy spread leads to shortening
of the bunches and hence a reduction of the
longitudinal emittance.

Some LHC numbers
Energy loss per turn at:
injection at 450 GeV = 1.15 x 10-1 eV
Collision at 7 TeV = 6.71 x 103 eV
Power loss per meter in the main dipoles at 7 TeV is
0.2 W/m
Longitudinal damping time at:
Injection at 450 GeV = 48489.1 hours
Collision at 7 TeV = 13 hours

What about the betatron oscillations ? (1)
Each photon emission reduces the transverse and longitudinal
energy or momentum.
Lets have a look in the vertical plane:
Emitted photon (dp)
total momentum (p)
momentum lost dp

AXEL - 2011

What about the betatron oscillations ? (2)
The RF system must make up for the loss in longitudinal
energy dE or momentum dp.
However, the cavity only supplies energy parallel to ideal
trajectory.
ideal trajectory
new particle trajectory
old particle trajectory
Each passage in the cavity increases only the longitudinal
energy.
This leads to a direct reduction of the amplitude of the
betatron oscillation.

Some intermediate remarks….
Transverse damping for LHC time at:
Injection at 450 GeV = 48489.1 hours
Collision at 7 TeV = 26 hours
Longitudinal and transverse emittances all shrink as a function of
time.
For leptons damping times are typically a few milliseconds up to a
few seconds.
Advantages:
Reduction in losses
Injection oscillations are damped out
Allows easy accumulation
Instabilities are damped
Inconvenience:
Lepton machines need lots of RF power, therefore LEP was stopped
All damping is due to the energy gain from the RF system an not
due to the emission of synchrotron radiation
R. Steerenberg, 13-Jan-2011
AXEL - 2011
20
Is there a limit to this damping ? (1)
Can the bunch shrink to microscopic dimensions ?
No ! , Why not ?
For the horizontal emittance h there is heating term
due to the horizontal dispersion.
What would stop dE and v of damping to zero?
For v there is no heating term. So v can get very
small. Coupling with motion in the horizontal plane
finally limits the vertical beam size
R. Steerenberg, 13-Jan-2011
AXEL - 2011
21
Is there a limit to this damping ? (2)
In the transverse plane the damping seems to be
limited.
What about the longitudinal plane ?
Whenever a photon is emitted the particle energy
changes.
This leads to small changes in the synchrotron
oscillations.
This is a random process.
Adding many such random changes (quantum
fluctuations), causes the amplitude of the
synchrotron oscillation to grow.
When growth rate = damping rate then damping
stops, which give a finite equilibrium energy spread.

Fluctuation in number of photons emitted in one damping
time

Wigglers (1)
The damping time in all planes  ET
u
If the loss of energy, u, increases, the damping time
decreases and the beam size reduces.
To be able to control the beam size we add ‘wigglers’

It is like adding extra dipoles, however the wiggles
does not give an overall trajectory change, but
increases the photon emission
R. Steerenberg, 13-Jan-2011

25
Wigglers (2)
What does the wiggler in the different planes?
Vertically:
We do not really need it (no heating term), but the vertical
emittance would be reduced
Horizontally:
The emittance will reduce.
A change in energy gives a change in radial position
We know the dispersion function: dr  D( s )
dE
E
In order to reduce the excitation of horizontal oscillations
we should put our wiggler in a dispersion free area (D(s)=0)
R. Steerenberg, 13-Jan-2011
AXEL - 2011
26
Wigglers (3)
Longitudinally:
The wiggler will increase the number of photons emitted
It will increase the quantum fluctuations
It will increase the energy spread
Conclusion:
Wigglers increase longitudinal emittance and
decrease transverse emittance
