Abstract :
By modulating the RF voltage at near twice the synchrotron frequency we are able to modulate the longitudinal bunch shape. We show experimentally that this can be done while preserving the longitudinal emittance when the RF voltage modulation is turned on adiabatically. Experimental measurements are presented along with theoretical predictions
