I. Hofmann et al., ANALYSIS OF THE THERMAL-EQUILIBRIUM STATE OF BUNCHED BEAMS WITH A STREAK CAMERA, Physical review letters, 75(21), 1995, pp. 3842-3845
The thermal equilibrium distribution of cooled bunched ion beams in th
e ESR storage ring is investigated in simultaneous longitudinal-transv
erse measurements by using a scintillator and streak camera in the ext
raction beam line. We have found a cylindrical bunch model with local
Gaussian density profiles confirming the model of a Maxwell-Boltzmann
distribution in six-dimensional phase space.
