Substituting the electron Lorentz factor in the supplied energy-loss formula gives
Without replenishment, the electron's momentum decreases. The reference dipoles then bend it more tightly, producing a displaced orbit. In linear beam optics, and , where per uncompensated turn. In an ideal planar ring the horizontal dispersion is nonzero and the orbit shifts horizontally, inward where . There is no corresponding vertical closed-orbit shift when . Real coupling or vertical dispersion can change that idealization.
With current A, the number of circulating particles is , so the radiated power is
The revolution time cancels when using beam current. Radio-frequency cavities restore the lost energy longitudinally, with synchronous gain in the sine-phase convention. Their RF power system must supply at least this beam power, in addition to its own losses. Radiation damping and quantum excitation determine beam emittances; they should not be confused with the dispersive closed-orbit shift from a momentum change.
