Abstract The proton beam driving the spallation process at the European Spallation Source, in Lund, will be accelerated and delivered onto a tungsten target by a linac. This linac is composed of four different families of accelerating structures: adrift tube linac, a section of spoke resonators and two sections of elliptical cavities for the particles’ medium and high relativistic β. These structures provide 99.8% of the total energy gained by the beam along the accelerator. It is necessary, then, to have an accurate model describing the physics of the cavities in the ESS Linac Simulator (ELS), which isthe online model that will simulate the accelerator during operation. Here, we present an RF-cavity model based on the field maps that we implemented in ELS, showing a maximum 10% deviation from TraceWin in the horizontal, vertical and longitudinal planes.
