Macroscopic Fluid Approach to the Coherent Beam-Beam Interaction
Abstract
Building on the Radon transform of the Vlasov-Poisson equations, a macroscopic fluid model for the coherent beam-beam interaction has been developed. It is shown that the Vlasov equation, expressed in action-angle variables, can be reduced to a closed set of hydrodynamic (fluid) equations for the beam density and current velocity. The linearized one dimensional equations have been analysed, and explicit expressions for the coherent beam-beam tuneshifts are presented.
