Longitudinal injection for the MAX IV storage ring might be enabled by distortion of the acceptance phase space for an RF bucket caused by RF acceleration and synchrotron radiation losses (Aiba et al., 2014). An electron bunch having ∼4% higher energy than the nominal ring energy is injected approximately 5 ns behind the center of an RF bucket having 5% momentum acceptance where it is subsequently captured after damping of longitudinal oscillations. Bucket spacing is 10 ns for the MAX IV 100-MHz RF system. |
