Robust Solver for

Parabolic Equation

Proposal in LCLS effort meeting

Motivation

Parabolic equation has been solved in FEL, CSR,

and Impedance calculations, etc. (Important for
LCLS and LCLSII, etc).

The present codes(solver) are limited for simple

cases (geometry), or/and slow, and kind of 2D
solver (3D problem, z is treated like time)

We propose to develop fast 3D parabolic solver

for general cross-section of the beam pipe.

FEL
FEL (for example, Genesis by sven reiche)

Modeling challenges : EE-HG (D. Xiang and G. Stupakov, PR

STAB 12, 030702 (2009)
Large number of particles, CSR in Chicane

New numerical methods have to be applied to solve field equation

Genesis (boundary approximation)

Set the field ZERO out the domain of interest

CSR
CSR ( for example, CSR in bend magnet (Tomonori Agoh, Phys.
Rev. ST Accel. Beams 7, 054403 (2004))

All this type of codes can only for rectangular cross-section!

Various Solver we have developed

Solver for all modes in Disk-loaded Structures, NIMA, Vol. 481,
95(2002). (Traveling wave, all mode, meshless method)
Solver for microwave element and accelerating structure
High Energy Physics &Nuclear Physics, 25 (2001)(2D)

Solver for Poisson Equation (2D,3D), PRSTAB 5, 124402 (2002)

Adaptive impedance Analysis of grooved surface (THPAS067 ,PAC07)
Two-dimensional FEM Code for Impedance Calculation (IPAC'10)

Fields in Disk-loaded Structures

Advantages of FEM
Irregular grids
Arbitrary geometry
Easy to handle boundary

Impedance of
Grooved surface
(THPAS067 ,PAC07)

Shape A
Shape B

(b)

Shape C

Rounded Tip

Advantages of FEM
Irregular grids
Arbitrary geometry
Easy to handle boundary
Small beam in a large domain (FEL in undulator)
CPU (fast)
Accuracy(higher order element, adaptive mesh, etc)

Disadvantage & Challenge:

Complexity in coding (irregular grid, arbitrary geometry, 3D)

Time tables of milestones: (hard to predict)

(1) coding---6 months
(2)benchmark, application.

Deliverables :
SLAC-pub, and maybe Journal paper

Mesh of chamber & beam

Arbitrary geometry of beam pipe
Any shape of beam
