TUPD013 | Assessment of CERN PSB Performance with Linac4 by Simulations of Beams with Strong Direct Space Charge Effects | 1949 |
|
||
The performance of the CERN PS Booster (PSB) synchrotron is believed to be limited mainly by direct space charge effects at low energy. The main motivation to construct Linac4 is to raise the PSB injection energy to mitigate direct space charge effects. At present, simulation of the injection and the ow energy part of the cycle aim at defining Investigations on the influence of parameters of the injected beam on the performance of the PSB are described. |
