| Daresbury Laboratory is currently building an Energy Recovery Linac Prototype (ERLP) that will operate at a beam energy of 35 MeV. In this paper we examine the Space Charge effects on the beam dynamics in the ERLP injector line. This is done in two distinct ways. The first is based on an analytic formula derived by Vinokurov through the envelope equations and a Kapchinsky-Vladimirsky (KV) distribution. This formula gives a rough estimate of the space charge effects in the case that no quadrupoles or dipoles are present in the injector line. The second estimate is given by the multi-particle tracking code ASTRA for the whole injector line both with and without quadrupoles. Both methods are compared and are found to be in good agreement. Typical examples of injector lines are given together with specific calculations for the ERLP. |
