TI - A Parallel Particle-Particle, Particle-Mesh Solver for Studying Coulomb Collisions in the Code IMPACT-T J2 - Proc. of IPAC2015, Richmond, VA, USA, May 3-8, 2015 C1 - Richmond, VA, USA T2 - International Particle Accelerator Conference T3 - 6 LA - english AB - In intense charged-particle beams, the presence of Coulomb collisions can result in growth of the beam slice energy spread and emittance that cannot be captured correctly using traditional particle-in-cell codes. Particle-particle, particle-mesh solvers take a hybrid approach, combining features of N-body and particle-in-cell solvers, to correctly capture the effect of short-range particle interactions with less computing time than direct N-body solvers. We describe the implementation and benchmarking of such a solver in the code IMPACT-T for beam dynamics applications.
