Next generation High-Energy Physics (HEP) experiments are presented with significant computational challenges, both in terms of data volume and processing power. Using compute accelerators, such as GPUs, is one of the promising ways to…
The design concept of the Electron Ion Collider (EIC), which is under construction at BNL, considers adding a 2nd Interaction Region (IR) and detector to the machine after completion of the present EIC project. Recent progress with…
Operation of complex systems which depend on one, or more, sub-systems with many process variables often operate in more than one state. For each state there may be a variety of parameters of interest, and for each of these, one may require…
In Fermilab's neutrino facilities such as the Neutrinos at the Main Injector (NuMI) and the upcoming Long Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF), a proton beam strikes high-power target, producing positively and negatively charged pions and…
The behavior of mismatched intense charged-particle beams in periodic transport channels of the solenoid and quadrupole type is studied theoretically. The envelope-oscillation frequencies of the mismatched beam are obtained by the…
A recently developed three-dimensional version of the quasistatic code LCODE has a novel feature that enables high-accuracy simulations of the long-term evolution of waves in plasma wakefield accelerators. Equations of plasma particle…
This paper describes the beam dynamic simulation with transfer matrix method for cyclotron. Starting from a description on the equation of motion in the cyclotron, lattice functions were determined from transfer matrix method and the…
Neutronics calculations have been performed of the MYRRHA ADS Reactor with a thorium-based fuel mixture, using the simulation programs MCNPX (Waters, 2002) and Geant4 (Agostinelli, 2003). Thorium is often considered for ADS systems, and…
Terawatt x-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) require high current densities with strong transverse focusing. The implications on harmonic generation are discussed using the MINERVA simulation code which self-consistently includes harmonic…
For high-intensity linear accelerators, space-charge halo mechanisms are largely classified into two families: particle resonances and parametric instabilities. The dominance between the fourth-order particle resonance and the envelope…
Since its commissioning in 1977, the U-120M cyclotron has been equipped with one pair of harmonic coils dedicated to establishing optimal beam quality at low accelerating radii. In 2022, the cyclotron was upgraded and a second pair of…
This article reviews the beam dynamics issues, such as intra-beam scattering, beam-beam interaction, lattice nonlinearity, and space charge, in SuperKEKB before its commissioning.
The generation of high power coherent soft X-ray pulses of sub-100 as duration and 10 nm wavelength using beams from a GeV energy plasma wakefield accelerator has been recently investigated in Ref. [arXiv:2011.07163]. As a future upgrade to…
Polarized lepton beams are an important aspect in the design of the future 100 km-scale Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEPC). Precision beam energy calibration using resonant depolarization, as well as longitudinally polarized…
The micro-bunching instability is a longitudinal instability that leads to dynamical deformations of the charge distribution in the longitudinal phase space. It affects the longitudinal charge distribution, and thus the emitted coherent…
The interaction of a high-current $O$(100~\textmu A), medium energy $O$(10\,GeV) electron beam with a thick target $O$(1m) produces an overwhelming shower of standard matter particles in addition to hypothetical Light Dark Matter particles.…
Many studies have shown that high-energy $\gamma$-photon beams can be efficiently generated via nonlinear Compton scattering driven by laser pulses with intensities $> 10^{22}\rm{W/cm^2}$ recently available in laboratories. Here, we propose…
Plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA) is a promising method for reducing the scale and cost of future electron-positron collider experiments by using shorter plasma sections to enhance beam energy. While electron acceleration has already…
The electron induced production of positrons is a multi-parameter problem which combines elementary physics processes with complex collection systems. The optimization of this technique for 120~MeV and 1000~MeV electron beam kinetic…
We describe a simple scheme, truncated-channel injection, to inject electrons directly into the wakefield driven by a drive pulse guided by an all-optical plasma channel. We use this approach to generate dark-current-free 1.2 GeV, 4.5 %…
