  The high intensity accelerator projects place extremely stringent requirements on particle loss, since even very small losses can lead to unacceptably high levels of radioactivity that can hinder or prevent hands-on maintenance. Such losses are known to be associated with emittance growth and beam halo. Non-equipartitioning contributes a lot for emittance growth and beam halo. The present equipartitioning realization has assumed that the emittance and space charge force are keeping constant, which will induce errors. The implementation in the proton linac code PADSC does equipartitioning optimization according to the real space charge force and emittance in the quasi period lattice.
