Abstract :
Transverse beam instabilities at injection prevent the Fermilab Main Ring from storing higher intensity proton beam. It is essential to understand the nature of existing beam instabilities in order to increase the stored beam intensity. Results of experimental studies are presented and the nature of beam instabilities is depicted. Possible cures are discussed
