A COMPUTER PROGRAM SIMULATING THE INTERACTION OF A PROTON BEAM WITH A RESONANT CAVITY AND AN RF CAVITY

摘要

This report presents an up-to-date description of a computer program simulating the interaction of a proton beam circulating in an AG accelerator or storage ring and interacting with a resonant cavity and an rf accelerating gap. A presentation of the theory is given upon which the simulation program is based. It is fol¬lowed by a formal description of the program structure and some details of the incorporated procedures. The remainder of this report contains considerations about the scaling of the computer model which has to be taken into account in the choice of parameters and in the in¬terpretation of results.
