	The design betatron tune of the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) of China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is (4.86, 4.80), which allows for incoherent tune shifts to avoid serious systematic betatron resonances. When the operational bare tune was set at the design value, serious beam instability in the horizontal plane and beam loss induced by half-integer resonance in the vertical plane under space charge detuning were observed. The tunes over the whole acceleration process are optimized based on space charge effects and beam instability. In the RCS, manipulating the tune during the beam acceleration process is a challenge due to the quadrupole magnets being powered by resonant circuits. In the RCS of CSNS, a method of waveform compensation for RCS magnets was investigated to accurately manipulate the magnetic field ramping process. The optimized tune pattern was able to well control the beam loss induced by space charge and beam instability. The beam power of CSNS achieved the design value of 100 kW with small uncontrolled beam loss.

WEA2C2	Measurement of Transverse Statistical Dependence for Non-Gaussian Beam Distributions via Resonances in the CERN PSB	231
	E.R. Lamb, F. Asvesta, H. Bartosik, G. Sterbini CERN, Meyrin, Switzerland E.R. Lamb EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland
	This work addresses the origins and the effects of the statistical dependence in non-Gaussian beam distributions with the ultimate goal to identify the most representative case for tracking simulations across the CERN accelerator complex. Starting from the observation that non-Gaussian heavy-tailed transverse beam profiles can be reconstructed from 4D phase space distributions under two different conditions (statistical independence or dependence in the x-y plane), we consider space charge dominated beams interacting with the lattice nonlinear resonances to perform measurements to study the mechanisms that lead to non-Gaussian distributions. Finally, we explore the beam dynamics implications of the above hypotheses in terms of dependent loss processes across the transverse planes.

The design betatron tune of the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) of China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is (4.86, 4.80), which allows for incoherent tune shifts to avoid serious systematic betatron resonances. When the operational bare tune was set at the design value, serious beam instability in the horizontal plane and beam loss induced by half-integer resonance in the vertical plane under space charge detuning were observed. The tunes over the whole acceleration process are optimized based on space charge effects and beam instability. In the RCS, manipulating the tune during the beam acceleration process is a challenge due to the quadrupole magnets being powered by resonant circuits. In the RCS of CSNS, a method of waveform compensation for RCS magnets was investigated to accurately manipulate the magnetic field ramping process. The optimized tune pattern was able to well control the beam loss induced by space charge and beam instability.
