Wake fields in 9-cell TESLA accelerating structures : Spectral Element Discontinuous Galerkin (SEDG) simulations.

Conference ·
OSTI ID:982635

Using our recently developed high-order accurate Maxwell solver, NEKCEM, we carried out longitudinal wakefield calculations for a 9-cell TESLA cavity structure in 3D. Indirect method is used for wake potential calculations. Computational results with NEKCEM are compared with those of GdfidL. NEKCEM uses a spectral element discontinuous Galerkin (SEDG) method based on a domain decomposition approach using spectral-element discretizations on Gauss-Lobatto-Legendre grids with body-conforming hexahedral meshes. The numerical scheme is designed to ensure high-order spectral accuracy, using the discontinuous Galerkin form with boundary conditions weakly enforced through a flux term between elements. Concerns related to implementation on wake potential calculations are discussed, and wake potential calculations with indirect method by NEKCEM compared with the results of the finite difference time-domain code GdfidL.
