Simulation study of electron cloud induced instabilities and emittance growth for the CERN Large Hadron Collider proton beam

The electron cloud may cause transverse single-bunch instabilities of proton beams such as those in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS). We simulate these instabilities and the consequent emittance growth with the code HEADTAIL, which models the turn-by-turn i...
