Abstract

The corrugated wakefield structure has wide application in electron beam energy manipulation and high frequency RF radiation generation. The transverse wakefield which cause beam breakup (BBU) instability is excited when the drive beam is not perfectly centered through the structure. Here we report on the numerical and experimental investigation of the BBU effect in a W-band corrugated structure, for both cases of short range wakefield and long range wakefield. In the numerical part we develop a point to point (P2P) code that allows rapid and efficiency simulations of the beam dynamics effect by wakefield, which is based on the the particle-wake function coupled dynamics equation of motion. And the experimental measurements of BBU effect are found to be in good agreement with the simulations.
