Title: Numerical simulations of stripping effects in high-intensity hydrogen ion linacs

Journal Article · · Phys.Rev.ST Accel.Beams 12:040102,2009
OSTI ID:950870

Numerical simulations of H{sup -} stripping losses from blackbody radiation, electromagnetic fields, and residual gas have been implemented into the beam dynamics code TRACK. Estimates of the stripping losses along two high-intensity H{sup -} linacs are presented: the Spallation Neutron Source linac currently being operated at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and an 8 GeV superconducting linac currently being designed at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory.
