PyHEADTAIL is a 6D tracking tool developed at CERN to simulate collective effects. We present recent developments of the direct space charge suite, which is available for both the CPU and GPU. A new 3D particle-in-cell solver with open boundary conditions has been implemented. For the transverse plane, there is a semi-analytical Bassetti-Erskine model as well as 2D self-consistent particle-in-cell solvers with both open and closed boundary conditions. For the longitudinal plane, PyHEADTAIL offers line density derivative models. Simulations with these models are benchmarked with experiments at the injection plateau of CERN's Super Proton Synchrotron.

  High-power proton linacs seek to operate with low and stable losses. This aspect is carefully evaluated with multi-particle beam dynamics codes during the design stage. However, it is just as important to evaluate the performance of the actual operating linac, which is typically more tedious and complicated when using these same design codes. To improve this situation, we have developed a high-performance, multi-particle online modeling tool, HPSim, with the goal of providing near real-time simulation results for our 800-MeV proton linac at Los Alamos. This presentation will cover the motivation, code features, benefits and applications.
