KEKB Beam Collision Stability at the Picosecond Timing and Micron Position Resolution as observed with the Belle Detector

Using the Belle detector we study the characteristics of beam collisions at the KEKB 3.5 GeV $e^+$ on 8 GeV $e^-$ asymmetric energy collider. We investigate the collision timing {\tip} and its $z$-coordinate along the beam axis {\zip} as a function of the position of the colliding bunch in a beam train. The various {\tip} and {\zip} behaviors observed by Belle are attributed to beam loading effects in the radio frequency cavities that accelerate the beams with a beam abort gap. We report these results in detail and discuss the prospects for the SuperKEKB collider.

Compensation of the Crossing Angle with Crab Cavities at KEKB

Crab cavities have been installed in the KEKB B--Factory rings to compensate the crossing angle at the collision point and thus increase luminosity. The beam operation with crab crossing has been done since February 2007. This is the first experience with such cavities in colliders or storage rings. The crab cavities have been working without serious issues. While higher specific luminosity than the geometrical gain has been achieved, further study is necessary and under way to reach the prediction of simulation.

Negative Momentum Compaction at KEKB

KEKB is a high luminosity e+e- collider for studying B mesons and has achieved the design luminosity of 1034cm-2s-1 in 2003. In order to get higher luminosity, we tested negative momentum compaction optics in the summer of 2003. We measured the bunch length using three methods at 0.7mA to 1.17mA bunch current and confirmed the length was shortened with the negative momentum compaction optics.
