Description
The side-coupled cavity linac (CCL) at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) is tuned by matching a single-particle model to the RF phase signature of the modules. In the future, the High-Performance Simulator (HPSim), a GPU-powered, 6-D particle tracking code, will be used to reveal additional information that will assist with tuning. In this proceeding, the status of the HPSim-based Phase Scan Signature Matching (PSSM) routine is presented, along with the outlook for its future implementation.
