The analysis is based on successive approximations of the Khokhlov-Zabolotskaya-Kuznetsov (KZK) equation. Asymptotic expansions are presented for higher-order harmonic Bessel beams in near and far fields. The validity of asymptotic approximation is also analyzed. The higher-order harmonic of the Bessel beam with the lowest zero-order is taken as a special example.展开更多

Taking the High Energy Photon Source as an example, we test the bunch length manipulation with harmonic cavities in a diffraction-limited storage ring (DLSR). The most important collective effects in a DLSR, intra-beam scattering and Touschek effects, are evaluated for different bunch-length patterns. Our study shows that it is feasible to produce long and short bunches simultaneously in a DLSR, without causing severe emittance growth and reduction in lifetime.展开更多
