Description

This study investigates a 3D convolutional encoder-decoder architecture with skip connections to predict coupled 3D electric potentials from charged particle distributions. Using automatic differentiation, the corresponding electric fields are then computed from the predicted potentials.
Our findings demonstrate that the network provides a computationally efficient alternative to traditional numerical methods for solving non-linear space-charge problems in beam dynamics simulations, offering significant potential for improving simulation speed and scalability.
