Optimization of Magnetized Electron Cooling with JSPEC

Stephen J. Coleman, David L. Bruhwiler, Dan T. Abell +3

The Electron-Ion-Collider (EIC) will be a next-generation facility located at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), built with the goal of accelerating heavy ions up to 275 GeV. To…

Propagation of a Gaussian Wigner Function Through a Matrix-Aperture Beamline

Ilya V. Pogorelov, Boaz Nash, Dan T. Abell +2

In the framework of statistical optics, a Wigner function represents partially coherent radiation. A Gaussian Wigner function, which is an equivalent representation of the more com…

Structure-preserving techniques in accelerator physics

Dan T. Abell, Alex J. Dragt

To a very good approximation, particularly for hadron machines, charged-particle trajectories in accelerators obey Hamiltonian mechanics. During routine storage times of eight hour…

Symplectic Modeling of Beam Loading in Electromagnetic Cavities

Dan T. Abell, Nathan M. Cook, Stephen D. Webb

Simulating beam loading in radiofrequency accelerating structures is critical for understanding higher-order mode effects on beam dynamics, such as beam break-up instability in ene…

A Spectral Symplectic Algorithm for Cylindrical Electromagnetic Plasma Simulations

Stephen D. Webb, Dan T. Abell, Nathan M. Cook +1

Symplectic integrators for Hamiltonian systems have been quite successful for studying few-body dynamical systems. These integrators are frequently derived using a formalism built…

Fringe field simulations of a non-scaling FFAG accelerator

George I. Bell, Dan T. Abell

Fixed-field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) accelerators offer the potential of high-quality, moderate energy ion beams at low cost. Modeling of these structures is challenging with co…
