Wake Field Acceleration Using a Cavity of Elliptical Cross Section, Part 1: WELL. A Computer Code for Wake Fields in a Cavity of Elliptical Cross Section

摘要

A computer code WELL is developed for the calculation of the wake fields in a cavity of elliptical cross section. The method is basically an extention of that of BCI to the 3-dimensional computation, i.e., Maxwell's equations are solved in the time domain with boundary conditions. Open boundary conditions are used so as to simulate infinitely long beam pipes. Good agreements within a few percents are shown between the results of the computation by WELL and BCI in a cylindrically symmetrical structure. An example of computation in an elliptical structure gives a reasonable result and points out that the deflection of particles by the transverse wake field is severe. (Atomindex citation 16:085687)
