Abstract

A single bunch longitudinal instability was experimentally investigated in the PF-AR under the condition that the number of cavity-cell which greatly contributed to longitudinal impedance was changed. The bunch length was measured as a function of the bunch current. Hysteresis phenomena in bunch lengthening process were discovered in the former condition of fully installed cavities. The present condition of reduced cavity-cells to 3/4 indicated an abrupt increase of the bunch length together with the energy spread at a bunch current. The instability threshold current was measured as a function of the bunch length. Measured results are consistent with Oide´s criterion
