Title: Modern Simulation and Optimization Tools for Non-Scaling FFAGs and Related Accelerators

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:1031464

With the U.S. experimental effort in HEP largely located at laboratories supporting the operations of large, highly specialized accelerators, the understanding and prediction of high energy particle accelerators becomes critical to the overall success of the DOE HEP program. One area in which small businesses can contribute to the ongoing success of the U.S. program in HEP is through innovations in computer techniques and sophistication in the modeling of high-energy accelerators. A specific newly identified problem lies in the simulation and optimization of FFAGs and related devices, for which currently available tools originally developed for other purposes provide only approximate and inefficient simulation. We propose to develop a set of tools for this purpose based on modern techniques and simulation approaches.
