Status Report on the “merging” of the Electron-cloud Code Posinst with the 3-d Accelerator Pic Code Warp
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have integrated the electron-cloud code POSINST [1] with WARP [2]–a 3-D parallel Particle-In-Cell accelerator code developed for Heavy Ion Inertial Fusion–so that the two can interoperate. Both codes are run in the same process, communicate through a Python interpreter (already used in WARP), and share certain key arrays (so far, particle positions and velocities). Currently, POSINST provides primary and secondary sources of electrons, beam bunch kicks, a particle mover, and diagnostics. WARP provides the field solvers and diagnostics. Secondary emission routines are provided by the Tech-X package CMEE.

Summary of Session D: Simulations of Electron Cloud Build up I
This report is a brief summary of the session D of the workshop ECLOUD04 about electron cloud build up simulations (Part I). In this session the status of some of the existing codes for the build up simulations has been reported and updates on the progress towards new powerful 3D and self-consistent codes have been presented. Simulations specifically applied to damping rings for linear collider...
متن کاملElectron cloud dynamics in the Cornell Electron Storage Ring Test Accelerator wiggler
The interference of stray electrons (also called ‘‘electron clouds’’) with accelerator beams is important in modern intense-beam accelerators, especially those with beams of positive charge. In magnetic wigglers, used, for instance, for transverse emittance damping, the intense synchrotron radiation produced by the beam can generate an electron cloud of relatively high density. In this paper th...
متن کاملUpdate on Electron-cloud Simulations Using the Package Warp-posinst∗
At PAC05[1] and PAC07[2], we presented the package WARP-POSINST for the modeling of the effect of electron clouds on high-energy beams. We present here the latest developments in the package. Three new modes of operations were implemented: 1) a build-up mode where, similarly to POSINST (LBNL) or ECLOUD (CERN), the build-up of electron clouds driven by a legislated bunch train is modeled in one ...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of Photoneutron Source by MCNPX Monte Carlo Code for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy
Introduction Electron linear accelerator (LINAC) can be used for neutron production in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). BNCT is an external radiotherapeutic method for the treatment of some cancers. In this study, Varian 2300 C/D LINAC was simulated as an electron accelerator-based photoneutron source to provide a suitable neutron flux for BNCT. Materials and Methods Photoneutron sources w...
متن کامل3-d Parallel Simulation of Continuous Beam-cloud Interactions
A new 3D Particle-In-Cell (PIC) model for continuous modelling of beam and electron cloud interaction in a circular accelerator is presented. A simple model for lattice structure, mainly the quadruple and dipole magnets and chromaticity have been added to a plasma PIC code, QuickPIC, used extensively to model plasma Wakefield acceleration concept. The code utilizes parallel processing technique...
