Already for the ideal lattice we see a strong reduction of lifetime, i.e. lattice MA (dynamic aperture), when including nonlinearities and synchrotron oscillation. Thus increasing the RF voltage beyond the planned 2.6 MV would gain only little in lifetime.
After introducing misalignments and closed orbit correction we observe large spread of different
seeds and further (-normalized!) lifetime decrease, however after applying
coupling suppression the ideal lattice values are restored and the spread from different seeds
is compressed as shown for two voltage values in Fig. 2.
