  • 1. Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM 87545, USA

Description

A tutorial overview of the drift tube linac beam dynamics code, PARMILA, is presented. Its structure and operation are described and its origins and applications are reviewed briefly. A major application, the evaluation of the effects of errors in construction and deviations from design operating conditions, and the extent to which these effects can be addressed by Parmila are discussed briefly. The user friendliness, accuracy, options in the code, and improvements to the code are described. References to this material are provided for the benefit of the reader
