- Summary
- Electron bunches in storage rings can ionize the background gas and depending on the bunch length and spacing between bunches the ions formed can be trapped by the electron space charge forces. It is the purpose of this note to show that the possibility of exciting the two stream instability then exists. This instability if excited would saturate by giving thermal velocity to the electrons i.e., by blowing up the emittance of the beam. Experiments carried out at ADONE have observed an increase in the electron beam emittance in the presence of background ions.
