    Synchrotron radiation of crystallized beams

    We study the modifications of synchrotron radiation of charges in a storage ring as they are cooled. The pair correlation lengths between the charges are manifest in the synchrotron radiation and coherence effects exist for wavelengths longer than the coherence lengths between the charges. Therefore the synchrotron radiation can be used as a diagnostic tool to determine the state (gas, liquid, crystal) of the charged plasma in the storage ring. We show also that the total power of the synchrotron radiation is enormously reduced for crystallized beams. This opens the possibility of accelerating particles to ultra-relativistic energies using small-sized cyclic accelerators.Comment: REVTeX, 27 pages, 6 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.

    Suppression of synchrotron radiation due to beam crystallization

    Get PDF
    With respect to a "hot", non-crystallized beam the synchrotron radiation of a cold crystallized beam is considerably modified. We predict suppression of synchrotron radiation emitted by a crystallized beam in a storage ring. We also propose experiments to detect this effect.Comment: LaTeX, 3 pages, 1 figure, To be published in Eur. Phys. J. A, December 199

    Combinatorial identities for binary necklaces from exact ray-splitting trace formulae

    Based on an exact trace formula for a one-dimensional ray-splitting system, we derive novel combinatorial identities for cyclic binary sequences (P\'olya necklaces).Comment: 15 page

    Exact, convergent periodic-orbit expansions of individual energy eigenvalues of regular quantum graphs

    Get PDF
    We present exact, explicit, convergent periodic-orbit expansions for individual energy levels of regular quantum graphs. One simple application is the energy levels of a particle in a piecewise constant potential. Since the classical ray trajectories (including ray splitting) in such systems are strongly chaotic, this result provides the first explicit quantization of a classically chaotic system.Comment: 25 pages, 5 figure
