Benchmark and Comparisons of FEL Simulation Programs TDA3D and GENESIS
نویسندگان
چکیده
A low-energy undulator test line (LEUTL) is under construction at the Advanced Photon Source (APS). This line will initially be used to demonstrate a free-electron laser (FEL) based on the self-amplified spontaneous-emission (SASE) process. The FEL simulation programs, TDA3D and GENESIS, together with several other codes have been used for the LEUTL project. In order to increase the confidence on the simulation results, we attempted to benchmark two programs TDA3D and GENESIS. The results are reported here.

The Aps Sase Fel: Modeling and Code Comparison
A self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) freeelectron laser (FEL) is under construction at the Advanced Photon Source (APS). Five FEL simulation codes were used in the design phase: GENESIS, GINGER, MEDUSA, RON, and TDA3D. Initial comparisons between each of these independent formulations show good agreement for the parameters of the APS SASE FEL.
متن کاملOptical klystron FEL scheme for x-ray coherent harmonic generation at ISLF storage ring
The possibility of inserting an optical klystron on the storage ring of an Iranian Light Source Facility as a Synchrotron Radiation Free electron Laser for coherence harmonic generation in the soft x-ray spectrum has been studied. The study has been performed using the 3D FEL simulation code GENESIS 1.3 and in accordance with the available characteristic parameters of ISLF. Different potential ...
متن کاملTDA3D: Updates and improvements to the widely used three-dimensional free electron laser simulation
TDA3D is a widely distributed and often used Free Electron Laser (FEL) simuIation code. While a number of versions of TDA exist, this paper describes the official version which is well tested and supported. We describe the capabilities of the code emphasizing recent improvements and revisions. TDA3D is a steady-state (time-independent) amplifier code. The code self-consistently solves, after av...
متن کاملA New Approach to Improving the Efficiency of Fel Oscillator Simulations*
During the last year we have been benchmarking FEL oscillator simulation codes against the measured performance of the three Jefferson Lab oscillator FELs. While one might think that a full 4D simulation is de facto the best predictor of performance, the simulations are computationally intensive, even when analytical approximations to the electron bunch longitudinal distribution are used. In th...
متن کاملGENESIS 1.3: a fully 3D time-dependent FEL simulation code
Numerical simulation codes are basic tools for designing Free Electron Lasers (FEL). They are used to study the impact of di!erent parameters, e.g. wiggler errors and external focusing, which allow FEL users to optimize the performance. For faster execution some simulation codes assume radial symmetry or decompose the radiation "eld into a few azimuthal modes, although then this treatment does ...
