The dynamics of colliding bunched beams in the Energy Saver/Doubler (ESD) at Fermilab are discussed. For proper collisions of bunched beams with unequal energies, the orbit in the ESD must have a slightly different circumference than that of the main ring. The corresponding amount of momentum shift to achieve the circumference difference and the resulting maximum displacement are calculated. (PMA)
