Magnet Motion Produces Luminosity Loss

NLC Feedback Operation

Kicker Gain

Bunch Charge

•Measure deflected bunches with BPM and kick other beam to eliminate vertical offsets at IP

•Feedback loop assesses intra-bunch performance and maintains correction signal to the kicker

•Minimise distance of components from IP to reduce latency

Luminosity Performance w. Feedback

•Lower gains gives better performance at smaller offsets, higher gains give better performance at higher offsets

•Vary gain dependent on observed beam conditions

Feedback Performance w./ 2-stage Gain

•Gains chosen automatically based on linearisation of beam-beam kick curve.

•Gives good luminosity performance over whole offset region.
