Modeling of the Proposed ATA Fast Correction Coils
Abstract
The Fast Correction Coil system will provide dynamic beam steering on the ATA linear electron accelerator at LLNL. We are designing the system using multi-conductor transmission line theory to model the coil response. The JASON electrostatics code is used to predict both E and B field profiles within the coil and to determine all coil electrical parameters. We simulate the electrical system behavior using either of two circuit models based on these parameters. One incorporates the NET2 circuit analysis code, while the other is a purely analytic model. These models have allowed us to conduct a comprehensive trade-off study aimed at designing the most efficient system within the constraints set by accelerator physics requirements.
