The research program at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) Beam Test Facility (BTF) focuses on improving accelerator model accuracy. This study explores the effect of two different models of permanent magnet quadrupoles, which comprise a 9.5-cell FODO line in the BTF. The more realistic model includes all higher-order terms, while the simple, in use model, is a perfect quadrupole. Particular attention is paid to high-amplitude particles to understand how the choice of quadrupole model will affect beam halo distributions. In this paper, we compare particle tracking through a FODO line that contains only linear terms - a perfect quadrupole model - to a full 3D model.

  Hadron beams develop intensity-dependent transverse-longitudinal correlations within radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ) accelerating structures. These correlations are only visible in six-dimensional phase space and are destroyed by reconstructions from low-dimensional projections. In this work, we estimate the effect of artificial decorrelation on the beam dynamics in the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) linac and Beam Test Facility (BTF). We show that the evolution of a realistic initial distribution and its decorrelated twin converge during the early acceleration stages; thus, low-dimensional projections are probably sufficient for detailed predictions in high-power linacs.

  Basic principles of laser assisted charge exchange injection for H⁻ ion andH0 beams are presented. Theoretical aspects of electromagnetic interaction of laser with hydrogen atom and H⁻ ions are discussed. Laser excitation, photoionizatio and interaction of atoms and ions with a strong electro-magnetic field are discussed and compared. Different techniques of LACE for stripping of high current stochastic beams are presented. The optimum parameters of LACE are estimated and compared for various ion beam energies. Experimental development of laser stripping at the SNS are reviewed. Future plans of LACE at the SNS and J-PARC are discussed.
