At KEKB, a dedicated machine experiment on crab crossing has been carried out for about 4.5 months this year. Some of the beam-beam effects observed with crab crossing, which include a beam lifetime issue, are discussed in comparison with those with a finite crossing angle of ±11mrad.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
