Abstract

Experimental observation of particle diffusion mechanism in the presence of overlapping parametric resonances generated by a time dependent rf phase modulation is analyzed. We find that the regime of fast emittance growth is associated with the rapid particle motion along the separatrix of a dominant parametric resonance, the slow growth regime is related to particle diffusion in the chaotic sea, and the emittance saturation occurs when beam particles fill the chaotic region bounded by an invariant torus. Experimental data observed at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF) Cooler Ring are shown to agree well with the theoretical analysis. {copyright} {ital 1998} {ital The American Physical Society}
