Description

LORASR-Designer is a graphical user interface for linac beam dynamics design and simulation based on the LORASR simulation code developed at IAP. It extends existing LORASR workflows by enabling interactive configuration, parameterization, and validation of RF linac layouts. Instead of direct input-file editing, accelerator sections and design parameters are represented in a structured internal model, including section configuration, phase settings, longitudinal design modes, and aperture-related quantities. This improves consistency in model definition, supports backward-compatible handling of legacy configurations, and enables reproducible project-based workflows. LORASR-Designer is integrated into the LINAC-Multitool, where it adds design functionality while using the existing structures for visualization and evaluation of beam dynamics results.
