abstract = {{Beam-based observations and theoretical studies have demonstrated the existence of a significant amplitude dependence of the closest tune approach (ADECTA) in the LHC. This effect has the potential to generate significant distortion of the tune footprint and thus is of interest in regard to Landau damping. Conventionally ADECTA has been studied through saturation of tune separation with action during amplitude-detuning type measurements. In this paper, an alternative measurement technique is proposed and results of initial tests with beam are presented. The novel technique attempts to measure ADECTA by performing a classical closest approach tune scan, using proton beams in the LHC, which have been kicked and allowed to decohere, effectively giving a large action doughnut beam. It is shown that the tune and closest approach of the doughnut beams can be measured using the existing LHC Base-Band tune (BBQ) measurement system, and an amplitude dependence can be observed.}},
