description

Here we present results of calculations of emittance growth caused by quantum fluctuations of synchrotron radiation (QFSR) for a 1.5 GeV double-sided microtron (DSM). We did both semi-analytical estimations, employing known Twiss parameters for the DSM orbits, and a computer simulation of these stochastic effects using the program SYTRACE. This showed that the normalized emittance growth was within reasonable limits, by a factor of about 1.5, thus permitting e.g. the installation of small aperture linacs on the DSM axes.
