48 Beam-based Correction and Optimization for Accelerators
The elements of the decoupling matrix C can be related to the distribution
of the coupling sources. To that end we first need to calculate matrix H. For
simplicity, we define matrix

which is the equivalent of H for the normalized coordinates (¯ x, ¯

Eq. (2.73) indicates that if the betatron tunes satisfy the linear difference
resonance condition, i.e., ν x − ν y = p, where p is an integer, the G − term
dominates and r

2 . In this case the excitation of motion is equally
split between the two normal modes. If the tunes are near the linear sum
resonance, with ν x +ν y ≈ p, the G + term dominates. As |ν x +ν y −p| approaches
|G + |, r
2 and Abs(||C||) tend to infinity, where Abs(·) stands for the absolute
value. The beam motion near the linear sum resonance is unstable.
In a typical storage ring, the betatron tunes are closer to the linear difference resonance than the linear sum resonance, i.e., the fractional parts of
ν x and ν y tend to be both in the [0, 0.5] zone, or the [0.5, 1] zone. The linear
coupling is usually weak, with
|G − | | |ν x − ν y − p|,
