Description
Summary:We have studied the autophasing conditions in long linear accelerators for a phase advance scaling along the machine instead of the usual beta scaling. A new lattice scaling provides the damping of the resonant enlargement of bunches in transverse wakefields with small required correlated energy spread in the bunch. In addition, such an approach allows one to keep the amplitude of coherent betatron oscillations small by a proper choice of the phase advance at the first cell. It is shown that the scaling of the phase advance per cell gives significant advantages with respect to singlebunch and multibunch instabilities.
