Abstract
Based on the intrabeam scattering theory of Bjorken-Mtingwa, the gener al expressions for the growth rates of the horizontal, vertical and lo ngitudinal emittances are expressed in the simple form of elliptic int egrals. Using this analytical approach, the blow-up of a bunched heavy ion beam in the proposed HIRFL storage ring is simulated. The time ev olution of transverse emittances and momentum spread is obtained. A co mparison of the results with those obtained from the extended Piwinski theory exhibits a maximum discrepancy of 30%.
