Abstract The code ImpactX represents the next generation of the particle-in-cell code IMPACT-Z, featuring s-based symplectic tracking with 3D space charge, parallelism with GPU acceleration, adaptive mesh-refinement, and modernized language features. With such a code comes a renewed need for space charge validation using well-defined benchmarks. For this purpose, the code is continuously checked against a test suite of exactly-solvable problems. The suite includes field calculation tests, dynamical tests involving coasting or stationary beams, and beams matched to periodic focusing channels. To study the long-time multi-turn performance of the code in a more complex setting, we investigate problems involving high-intensity storage rings, such as the GSI benchmark problem for space charge induced trapping. Comparisons against existing codes are made where possible.
