TOPOPIC对强流束流在周期FODO结构中的传输研究

粒子云网格(Particle In cell,PIC) 方法是研究带电粒子在加速器中运动的关键工具之一。基于PIC 算法,开发了模拟强流条件下的束流动力学模拟程序TOPOPIC(Trace of Particle Orbit with PIC method),并且利用TOPOPIC,研究了束流在四极铁周期结构(FODO) 中的传输问题。结果表明,在强流条件下空间电荷效应显著地影响了束流的整体行为和单粒子的运动轨迹。最后比较了TOPOPIC 程序和通用的BEAMPATH 程序在相同条件下的计算结果,可以看到两个程序给出的模拟结果吻合得非常好,这表明TOPOPIC程序的计算结果是合理、可靠的。The Particle in cell (PIC) method is one of the key techniques in the research of charged particles in accelerators. Based on the PIC method, a new beam simulation code for high intensity beam named TOPOPIC (Trace of particle orbit with PIC method) has been developed. With the code TOPOPIC,the beam behavior during passing through the periodic quadrupole (FODO) structure has been studied. The results show that the nonlinear space charge affects the single particle behavior and beam envelope a lot. At last, the PIC code BEAMPATH is used for benchmark, the results given by TOPOPIC and BEAMPATH show good agreements,which means the code TOPOPIC is reliable.     

f =325 MHz,β=0.52 双柱超导Spoke 腔电磁设计

中国科学院近代物理研究所设计的工作频率为325 MHz、最优β为0.52 的双柱超导Spoke 腔的电磁已经完成。详细地描述了Spoke 基部横截面形状和大小对腔体射频性能的影响,采用了跑道形来取代通常的圆形Spoke 基部截面。从归一化峰值电磁场和分路阻抗两方面出发,比较了横截面为横向跑道和纵向跑道的Spoke 基部。Spoke 基部横截面的形状为横向跑道时能得到较好的射频参数,满足中国ADS(C-ADS) 的工程需求。最后利用CST 粒子工作室对得到的腔体进行了二次电子倍增分析,在工作电压附近不存在二次电子倍增,验证了该腔体形状的可行性。The EM design of a 325 MHz β= 0.52 superconducting double Spoke cavity has been finished at Institute of Modern Physics (IMP), Chinese Academy of Sciences(CAS). In this paper, the optimization of the Spoke base is described in detail. The goal is to minimize the peak surface field and maximize the shunt impedance. The common cylinder is replaced by the racetrack shape for the Spoke base. The transverse racetrack Spoke base can offer a better RF property than the longitudinal racetrack Spoke base, which meet the requirement of the C-ADS. The simulation of multipactor finished by CST Particle Studio is also presented, which gives a promising result that there is no multipactor around working voltage.     

SSC-LINAC中APF型DTL的优化设计

A linear accelerator as a new injector for the SSC （Separated Sector Cyclotron） of the HIRFL （Heavy Ion Research Facility Lanzhou） is being designed. The DTL （Drift-Tube-Linac） has been designed to accelerate ^238U^34＋ from 0.140 MeV/u to 0.97 MeV/u. To the first accelerating tank which accelerates ^238U^34＋ to 0.54 MeV/u, the approach of Alternating-Phase-Focusing （APF） is applied. The phase array is obtained by coupling optimization software Dakota and beam optics code LINREV. With the hybrid of Multi- objective Genetic Algorithm （MOGA） and a pattern search method, an optimum array of asynchronous phases is determined. The final growth, both transversely and longitudinally, can meet the design requirements. In this paper, the deign optimization of the APF DTL is presented.
