Description

High single-bunch charge in the EIC Beam Accumulator Ring (BAR) leads to strong impedance-induced bunch lengthening that exceeds the requirements for injection into the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron. Using geometric and resistive-wall impedance model and multi-particle tracking with ELEGANT, we study RF phase-jump schemes that rotate the longitudinal phase space to transiently shorten the bunch before extraction. The simulations show that an appropriately timed phase jump can compress the bunch into the required bunch-length and energy-spread window while maintaining transverse stability.
