  abstract     = {{A benchmark of superconducting cavity models against Time-of-Flight measurements at the SNS linac is presented. The superconducting part of SNS linac (SCL) includes 81 RF cavities that accelerates H⁻ beam from 185.6 MeV to the final energy of 1 GeV. During the operation some of cavities can become unstable, and its amplitudes should be reduced, or they should be completely switched off. In this case, the SCL is retuned by using a linac simulation code. This simulation tool relay on an accuracy of the superconducting cavity model. This paper describes the comparison of the measured beam acceleration by one of the SCL cavities and simulations of this process. Different cavity models are used in simulations. The subject of this study is limited to the longitudinal beam dynamics, so no effects on transverse beam characteristics have been considered.}},
