Electron Cloud in the LHC

Francesco Ruggiero

February 1998

Abstract:

A theoretical and experimental crash program has been set up at CERN to investigate electron cloud effects in the LHC. In particular, I report about recent estimates of the critical secondary-emission yield, versus bunch population and bunch spacing, and ongoing multipacting tests with a coaxial resonator in a strong magnetic field.
