The moment code BEDLAM

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

Description

This paper describes the status of BEDLAM and presents the results of some tests. We simulated a section of radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ) linac, neglecting space charge, to test the new code. Agreement with a Particle-In-Cell (PIC) simulation was excellent. We also verified that the fourth-order solution is more accurate than the second-order solution, which indicates the convergence of the method. We believe these results justify the continued development of moment simulation codes
