Simulation study of dynamic aperture with head-on beam-beam compensation in the RHIC

6-D weak-strong beam-beam simulation study of proton lifetime in presence of head-on beam-beam compensation in the RHIC

“…To use this method, the boundary between the stable core and the unstable bunch tail needs to be carefully determined. We will first calculate the minimum dynamic apertures in several angles the x-y planes [8] and then set the boundary well below the minimum radial dynamic aperture. After tracking, we also need to check if there are particles lost on the edge of boundary.…”
