Including parasitic beambeam and re-optimize quadrupoles
Add 9 5-bunch trains with 2ma/bunch as a counterrotating beam. The positron parameters (beta, phase, b_param, emittance, etc.) are computed including the effects of a strong beam of 45 bunches of electrons. The electron parameters are computed including the effects of a strong beam of 45 bunches of positrons. The lattice is reoptimized according to all of the usual constraints using all quadrupoles. Sextupoles are not changed. The data summarized below as constraint files, tabulated and plotted beta and orbit, are all computed assuming the counterrotating strong beam for the lattice file lattice file The optimization proceeds according to constraint file cons_quad_2ma.in
Luminosity vs current
Finally include in the comparison, luminosity and lifetime vs current computed in the uncompensated optics (bmad_4160_111005.lat) assuming a single bunch in each beam. The luminosity plot shows no significant difference in specific luminosity to . The lifetime plot show no degradation of lifetime in the single bunch case up to 3.5mA, and no degradation of lifetime with 9X4X2mA in the compensated optics to 3mA/bunch, whereas the lifetime begins to be degraded at 2.25mA/bunch with 9X4X2mA in the uncompensated optics.
Best luminosity to date is with 8X3 and two bunches missing (22 bunches/beam), day 362. Electron current is about 2/3 positron current. Luminosity per bunch vs average bunch current and simulation 120205 is day 326 luminosity . Specific luminosity is still well below prediction.
