Electron cloud buildup and related instability in the CERN Proton Synchrotron

The beam-induced electron cloud buildup is one of the major concerns for the SPS and the design of the future LHC. During the 2000 run, this effect has also been observed in the PS with the nominal LHC-type beam. The electron cloud induces a baseline distortion in electrostatic pickup signals, both...
