Abstract: Longitudinal coupled bunch instability in fractionally filled storage rings is studied in this paper with analytic method to derive the expression for the growth rate of the instability as well as the synchrotron oscillation frequency shift. An interesting phenomenon has been found that imaginary part of impedance makes contribution to the growth rate of coupled bunch instability. This phenomenon is contrary to that in symmetrical bunch filling cases.
