Study of Simulation Techniques for Laboratory Simulation of Nuclear Radiation Environments

摘要

The feasibility of a 15 MeV 1000 ampere electron storage ring is demonstrated. The work reported is the continuation of the electron storage ring feasibility study begun under Contract NOnr 3481(00). All the important beam loss mechanisms are treated, including space charge and coherent and incoherent image force effects. The problem of imperfection and coupling resonances is discussed. The analytical work led to the design of a 1/4 scale model magnet. The results of magnetic field mapping in this magnet are presented. Finally, a preliminary storage ring design which is considered feasible is discussed. (Author)
