Abstract :
A prototype of an analog, transverse feedback system for damping of the two-stream (e-p) instability has been developed and successfully tested at the Los Alamos Proton Storage Ring (PSR). This paper describes the system configuration, results of several experimental tests and studies of system optimization along with studies of the factors limiting its performance.
