Abstract

Response is made to J. A. MacLachlan's preceding Comment [Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 4, 017001 (2001)]. We are gratified to see that high quality simulations, as presented by MacLachlan, verify our experimental results.

Highlights

MacLachlan [1] takes up the suggestion we offered in our original manuscript to use multiparticle tracking to simulate our experiments
In his Comment, MacLachlan [1] points out that we had not offered any discussion of the merits of our technique with respect to other techniques
What makes our method unique is that the driven oscillations can be sustained indefinitely, thereby providing a short bunch state for a long period

Summary

Introduction

MacLachlan [1] takes up the suggestion we offered in our original manuscript to use multiparticle tracking to simulate our experiments. He is able to perform simulations which agree well with our experiments. In his Comment, MacLachlan [1] points out that we had not offered any discussion of the merits of our technique with respect to other techniques.
