D. Bruhwiler: RadiaSoft efforts ------------------------------- Preparing for a Phase II proposal in December Working on inducing wakefield-induced instabilities and demonstrating that they are ameliorated by nonlinear lattice Phase I: Show feasibility. Non-linear magnet model implemented in Synergia. Running test particles and comparing with MADX and LifeTrack. Phase II: Use simulations and calculations to prepare an experimental run plan Suggestion from Sasha: increase space charge to show benefit of non-linear lattice. Action item: Steven will look into this. Proposed Phase II tasks: - simulate RFQ bunches debunching in the IOTA ring using WARP (or possibly Synergia?) comment: concentrate on halo formation, characterization, and losses - Will iterate on this over the next months S. Antipov ---------- Looking at injection to ring Action item: identify hardware (E. Prebys) learning how to do Synergia E. Prebys ---------- Working on Synergia in parallel and simulation of pencil beams in IOTA Figuring out what hardware we can scrounge, particularly magnets action item: meet with Ollie to look at magnets H. Piekarz ---------- - Digging up old notes - FNAL TM-2436-APC : RFQ vacuum - Hydrogen safety note: - schematic of beam line - old budget action item: upload documents to RedMine!
