Beam-breakup instability theory for energy recovery linacs

Here we will derive the general theory of the beam-breakup instability in recirculating linear accelerators, in which the bunches do not have to be at the same rf phase during each recirculation turn. This is important for the description of energy recovery linacs where bunches are recirculated at a...
