Effects of incoherent space charge forces on the fast head-tail instability

The effects of incoherent space charge forces on the fast head-tail instability are studied numerically. It is found that incoherent space charge forces can dramatically increase the threshold current for a fixed wall impedance. The algorithm used for this study is described

Copper coating specification for the RHIC arcs

Copper coating specifications for the RHIC arcs are given. Various upgrade scenarios are considered and calculations of resistive wall losses in the arcs are used to constrain the necessary quality and surface thickness of a copper coating. We find that 10 {mu}m of high purity copper will suffice

The Tranft User's Manual.

The Fortran program TRANFT simulates transverse instabilities in circular accelerators using fast Fourier transform algorithms. It may be used for any particle type. Forces from transverse wakefields, longitudinal wakefields, and transverse detuning wakes are included, with linear transverse space charge forces included as a special case. This note describes the algorithms and their implementation in TRANFT
