Abstract :
A theoretical model for the longitudinal instabilities of intense beams in a transport channel with complex wall impedances is presented. A dispersion equation is derived to relate the growth rates of the slow waves to all the relevant parameters, including the space charge and the real and imaginary parts of the complex wall impedances. The growth rates for different wall structures are compared and discussed.<>
