European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), Geneva, Switzerland(Received 19 October 2009; published 12 March 2010)Crab cavities are proposed to be used for a luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).Crab cavities are rf cavities operated in a transverse dipole mode, which imparts on the beam particles atransverse kick that varies with the longitudinal position along the bunch. The crab cavity introducesanother kind of dispersion to the particles which is z dependent, and thus could complicate the beamdynamics and have an impact on the LHC collimation system. As for LHC, the off-momentum beta-beatand dispersion-beat already compromise the performance of the collimation system; the crab dispersionintroduced by global crab cavities might do the same, and should be carefully evaluated. In this paper, wepresent a definition for the crab dispersion, and study its impact on the LHC collimation system.
