Description

Many accelerators have to take microbunching gain into consideration during both design and operation; this typically involves beam parameters where space charge is negligible. However, there are some accelerator designs which involve bunch compression of low energy beams with very low slice energy spread - conditions which may be prone to both microbunching considerations as well as space charge. In this paper, we examine the impacts of space charge on the microbunching gain of bunch compressor chicanes of various designs.
