MOMPMP02 | Computational Needs for the ILC | 7 |
|
||
Funding: This work is supported by the Commission of the European Communities under the 6th Framework Programme, contract number RIDS-011899. The ILC requires detailed studies of the beam transport and of individual components of the transport system. The main challenges are the generation and preservation of the low emittance beams, the protection of the machine from excessive beam loss and the provision of good experimental conditions. The studies of these effects leads to specifications for the different accelerator components and hence can significantly impact the cost. |

WEPPP03 | Recent Improvements of PLACET | 188 |
|
||
The tracking code PLACET simulates beam transport and orbit correction in linear colliders from the damping ring to the interaction point and beyond. It is a fully programmable and modular software, thanks to a Tcl interface and external modules based on shared libraries. Recent improvements of the code are presented, including the possibility to simulate bunch compressors and to use parallel computer systems. |
