Beam loading compensation in the NLCTA

In the design of the Next Linear Collider (NLC), multibunch operation is employed to improve efficiency at the cost of substantial beam loading. The RF pulse that powers the accelerator structures will be shaped to compensate for the effect of the transient loading along the bunch train. This scheme has been implemented in the Next Linear Collider Test Accelerator (NLCTA), a facility built to test the key accelerator technology of the NLC. In this paper we describe the compensation method, the techniques used to measure the energy variation along the bunch train, and results from tests with NLC-like beam currents.
