FIG. 7.7: The threshold current as a function of gain for td = 0 from the analytic model<br />

(red line) and the results of the simulation code (black open circles).<br />

g = 0 in Eq. (7.8). The two codes were found to be in perfect agreement.<br />

The next step requires benchmarking the code with the analytic model for<br />

the case of bunch-by-bunch feedback with td = 0. The results of simulations for<br />

the remainder of this chapter use the input parameters in Table 7.1. The matrix<br />

elements were extracted from all-save values from an 88 MeV setup. The value<br />

for M34 is from zone 3 cavity 7 (the location of the unstable mode) back to itself,<br />

the value for M p<br />

34 is for a pickup located in the 2F region and the value for M k 34<br />

reflects a kicker located in the 5F region. For the model to be valid, recall that<br />

g < |M34/M p<br />

k<br />

| which is satisfied for these parameters.<br />

The agreement between the analytic formula and the results of the simulation<br />

are summarized in Fig. 7.7. Without feedback, the threshold current is 2.1 mA.<br />

It is clear that the analytic model is correct in its region of validity. The more<br />

interesting situations, however, are for time delays in the feedback system (td = 0)
