ICAP2012 - List of Keywords (cryomodule)

Paper	Title	Other Keywords	Page
SURDI1	Computational Challenges in ESS	linac, cavity, rfq, simulation	1
	H. Danared, M. Eshraqi, E. Laface, R. Miyamoto, S. Molloy, A. Ponton ESS, Lund, Sweden
	The European Spallation Source, to be built in Lund, Sweden, will be based on a superconducting proton linac. Top-level linac parameters of 2.5 GeV energy, 50 mA pulse current, 14 Hz pulse repetition rate and 2.86 ms pulse length result in 5 MW average beam power and 125 MW peak power. General challenges for the accelerator design and construction range from minimizing beam losses to prototyping, manufacturing and installing the large quantity of RF power soures. The presentation will give an overview of the ESS project and give specific examples of computational challenges related to the beam dynamics of the linac.

TUABI1	The TRIUMF Optimization Platform and Application to the E-linac Injector	TRIUMF, linac, simulation, FEL	67

	Funding: Funding is received from Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada for this research. Multi-objective genetic algorithms (MOGA) have demonstrated their usefulness for the global optimization of accelerator design using Elegant and Astra. A MOGA platform developed at TRIUMF seeks to expand the capabilities of such tools by allowing multiple simulation engines to be used. The TRIUMF optimization software platform was applied to the transport design of an injection line leading from a cryomodule to the beam dump. The optimization involves two simulation engines, Astra and MAD-X, and demonstrates the ability for the platform to handle multi-engine optimization for a realistic problem. Results of the optimization are shown.
