In this paper, we present a three-dimensional quasistatic model for high brightness beam dynamics simulation in rf/dc photoinjectors, rf linacs, and similar devices on parallel computers. model, electrostatic space-charge forces within charged particle are calculated self-consistently at each time step by solving the Poisson equation frame then transforming back to laboratory frame. When has large energy spread, it is divided into number of bins or slices so that from contribution bin summed...
Modern scientific datasets present numerous data management and analysis challenges. State-of-the-art index query technologies are critical for facilitating interactive exploration of large datasets, but challenges remain in terms designing a system processing general datasets. The needs to be able run on distributed multi-core platforms, efficiently utilize underlying I/O infrastructure, scale massive
We present results from an experimental study of the beam halo in a high-current 6.7-MeV proton propagating through 52-quadrupole periodic-focusing channel. The gradients first four quadrupoles were independently adjusted to match or mismatch injected beam. Emittances and beamwidths obtained measured profiles for comparisons with maximum emittance-growth predictions free-energy model halo-amplitude particle-core model. support both models theoretical picture formation.
In this paper we report on large-scale high resolution simulations of beam dynamics in electron linacs for the next-generation x-ray free lasers (FELs). We describe key features a parallel macroparticle simulation code including three-dimensional (3D) space-charge effects, short-range structure wakefields, coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) and treatment radio-frequency (rf) accelerating cavities using maps obtained from axial field profiles. present study microbunching instability causing...
The damaging effect of coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) on the emittance and energy spread high-energy beams in accelerator light sources can significantly constrain machine design performance. We propose a mitigation approach which dynamical longitudinal component CSR is suppressed by appropriately preparing initial current profile beam. In chicane, linear theory for mechanism CSR-induced growth used to demonstrate how this procedure produce beam whose core experiences transverse...
The shot-noise driven microbunching instability can significantly degrade electron beam quality in x-ray free laser light sources. Experiments were carried out at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) to study this instability. In paper, we present start-to-end simulations of experiment LCLS using real number electrons. simulation results reproduce measurements quite well. A self-heating mechanism is also illustrated simulation, which helps explain experimental observation.

The microbunching instability driven by collective effects of the beam inside an accelerator can significantly degrade final electron quality for free laser (FEL) radiation. In this Letter, we propose inexpensive scheme to suppress such in accelerators next generation FEL light sources. Instead using expensive device as a heater or RF deflecting cavities, uses longitudinal mixing associated with transverse spread through bending magnets transport system instability. uncorrelated energy...
Symplectic tracking is important in accelerator beam dynamics simulation. So far, to the best of our knowledge, there no self-consistent symplectic space-charge model available community.

Such preserves phase space structure shows much less numerical emittance growth than particle-in-cell illustrative examples.
