Abstract

A local crabbing scheme requires π/2 (mod π) horizontal betatron phase advances from an interaction point to the crab cavities on each side of it. However, realistic phase advances generated by sets of quadrupoles or Final Focusing Blocks (FFB), between the crab cavities located in the expanded beam regions and the IP differ slightly from π/2. To understand the effect of crabbing on the beam dynamics in this case, a simple model of the optics of the Medium Energy Electron-Ion Collider (MEIC), including local crabbing, was developed using linear matrices and studied over multiple turns (1000 passes) of both electron and proton bunches. This model was applied to determine linear-order dynamical effects of the synchro-betatron coupling induced by crabbing.
