TUPD015 | Accurate Simulation of the Electron Cloud in the Fermilab Main Injector with VORPAL | 1955 |
|
||
Precision simulations of the electron cloud at the Fermilab Main Injector have been studied using the plasma simulation code VORPAL. Fully 3D and self consistent solutions that includes Yee-type E.M. field maps generated by the cloud and the proton bunches have been obtained, as well detailed distributions of the 6D phase space occupied by the electrons. We plan to include such maps in the ongoing simulation of the space charge effects in the Main Injector. Simulations of the response of retarded field analyzers and microwave transmission experiments are ongoing. |
