Description
The Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) target stations require reliable beam quality to carry out experiments under optimal conditions. Maintaining the bunch structure through the beam transport from the 800-MeV Linac to the target stations is crucial. Currently, beam transport tuning is the primary tool to control the beam, although multiple simulation tools are being developed as ones to model the beamlines. The high-energy beamlines (HEBT) are simulated with accelerator physics codes such as Elegant and MAD-X. These models are continuously improved by incorporating key beam characteristics and lattice elements. They are benchmarked against experimental data where diagnostics are available. We are improving these tools to better understand beam optics and conduct studies aimed at optimizing beam performance. In this report, we present the latest simulation results supporting more predictive beam transport downstream of the 800-MeV Linac.
