Space Charge Effects of CSR

Key words: 
• space charge effect /
• space charge limit /
• cooler storage ring

Abstract: Cooler Storage Ring (CSR), an upgrading program planned at the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL), will supply beams with higher quality and intensity. Space charge effects should be considered due to this magnitude of intensity in CSR. The concept and some phenomena of space charge effects are discussed. Space charge intensity limit and space charge tune shift of normal CSR operation are given. It is of significance for the construction and operation of the future facility.
