Transport of Bunched Beams with Space Charge through a Periodic Lattice
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a numerical study of beam transport through a FODO HEBT typical of proposed large current ion linear accelerator systems. Previous studies of this problem have usually assumed uniform and linear focusing forces. In contrast, our study includes non uniform focusing as well as nonlinearities associated with space charge forces, fringe fields and RF gaps. We examine current limits, beam mismatch and emittance growth. These simulations are conducted with the high order Northrop Grumman Topkark code, which implements the Garnett and Wangler 3-D space charge model. We compare our results to the analytic studies of Hofmann[3], Reiser[4] and others. III. LATTICE

Halo Formation of Bunched Beams in Periodic Focusing Systems
A very critical design issue for high intensity proton linacs is to keep particle loss below 1 W/m at the high energy end and allow unconstrained hand on maintenance. Particle loss is caused by a small number of particles outside the dense beam core, called the beam halo. Halo formation of bunched beams in a periodic focusing channel is driven by mismatch, high space charge and temperature anis...
متن کاملSpace-charge transport limits of ion beams in periodic quadrupole focusing channels
It has been empirically observed in both experiments and particle-in-cell simulations that space-charge-dominated beams suffer strong growth in statistical phasespace area (degraded quality) and particle losses in alternating gradient quadrupole transport channels when the undepressed phase advance σ0 increases beyond about 85 per lattice period. Although this criterion has been used extensivel...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Electron-cooled Bunched Beams Predicted by a Simulation
Characteristics of electron-cooled bunched ion beams have been studied using the particle-tracking simulation in which the space-charge force and the force induced through the transverse broadband impedance are taken into account. The beams become space-charge dominated during the bunching of coasting beams. The simulation results show that the beams meet the transverse instability which can be...
متن کاملGreen ' s Function Analysis of Bunched Charged Particle
In this thesis, we analyze the dynamics and equilibrium of bunched charged particle beams in the presence of perfectly conducting walls using a Green's function technique. Exact self-consistent electric and magnetic fields are obtained for charged particles in the vicinity of a conducting boundary with the use of Green's functions. We present three analytical models of bunched beams in a cylind...
