Hamiltonian dynamics has been applied to study the slip-stacking dynamics.
The canonical-perturbation method is employed to obtain the second-harmonic
correction term in the slip-stacking Hamiltonian. The Hamiltonian approach
provides a clear optimal method for choosing the slip-stacking parameter and
improving stacking efficiency. The dynamics are applied specifically to the
Fermilab Booster-Recycler complex. The dynamics can also be applied to other
accelerator complexes.Comment: 10 p
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
