  Sim­u­la­tions are per­formed for the Ion Source Test Stand (ITUR) of the ESS-Bil­bao re­search ac­cel­er­a­tor fa­cil­i­ty. The beam dy­nam­ics is in­ves­ti­gat­ed as a func­tion of the ex­trac­tion volt­ages, the ion cur­rent, and the in­cli­na­tion angle of the ion source. The ITUR Pen­ning H− ion source has the plas­ma aper­ture plate and ex­trac­tion elec­trode in­clined a cer­tain angle with re­spect to the ver­ti­cal axis to com­pen­sate for the Pen­ning mag­nets field. The neg­a­tive charged par­ti­cles are ex­tract­ed through a rect­an­gu­lar slit of 10×6 mm2. The ex­trac­tion sys­tem is main­ly com­posed of two de­vices, a rect­an­gu­lar ex­trac­tion elec­trode and a re­frig­er­at­ed trum­pet shaped de­vice act­ing as an Einzel lens to focus the beam, and also, as a trap for neu­tral ce­sium atoms ex­it­ing from the source. Re­sults are cal­cu­lat­ed and an­a­lyzed at the DC Cur­rent Trans­former and pep­per­pot po­si­tions lo­cat­ed at 245 mm and 882 mm from the ion source.

In order to fully char­ac­ter­ize the ex­per­i­men­tal­ly mea­sured beam in any ac­cel­er­a­tor fa­cil­i­ty, both di­ag­nos­tics mea­sure­ments and op­er­at­ing pa­ram­e­ters need to be stored and cor­re­lat­ed. Gen­er­at­ing thus, a sub­stan­tial amount of data. To ad­dress this prob­lem in the ESS-Bil­bao Ion Source Test Stand (ITUR), we have de­vel­oped a soft­ware toolk­it. This soft­ware stores Pep­per­pot, Fara­day-Cup, Re­tard­ing Po­ten­tial An­a­lyz­er, ACCT and DCCT mea­sure­ments in a re­la­tion­al database as­so­ci­at­ed with the op­er­at­ing pa­ram­e­ter val­ues at the time of mea­sure­ment. Fur­ther­more, the toolk­it stores in the same database the beam trans­verse dy­nam­ics pa­ram­e­ters pro­cessed from the pep­per­pot de­vice. This al­lows to con­nect eas­i­ly the beam physics with the ac­cel­er­a­tor run­ning pa­ram­e­ters. MySQL has been used as database back­end and Mat­lab as pro­gram­ming lan­guage.
