Abstract

The 248 meter Spallation Neutron Source accumulator ring is designed to operate with a beam intensity of 1.5e14 ppp. A major concern for high intensity operation is the possibility of beam instabilities. Recently a series of experiments have been performed to systematically map out the instability parameter space. Beam instabilities have been measured versus betatron tune, beam intensity, and ring RF voltage. The results of these studies are presented here.
