Abstract :
High-energy proton/H minus energy (> GeV) linac injector suffers from energy jitter due to RF amplitude and phase stability. Especially in high power injectors this energy jitter results in beam losses more than 1 W/m that require for hand on maintenance. Depending upon the requirements for the next accelerator in the chain, this energy jitter may or may not require to be corrected. This paper will discuss the sources of this energy jitter, correction schemes with specific examples.
