  3. Aim of the study • Preliminary study for finding the optimal conditions for PTC/ORBIT space-charge simulations in terms of convergence and computational costs How far do we have to push in simulations settings to obtain reasonable results with less computational costs?

  12. Results – first without space charge… y Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  13. Results – first without space charge… If NoSc. with 1000th is our reference -> Error’s order ~ 10^-3 Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  14. Results – computational time criteria On lxbatch machines, “engpara” queue, 8 nodes required, over 1000 turns Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  15. Results – convergence criteria – best cases – a footprint… - 4th order resonances plotted Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  16. Results – convergence criteria – the best two cases… Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  17. Results – convergence criteria – best cases difference The error is in the order of 10^-3 (same as in the linear case !!!) Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  18. Results – convergence criteria – best cases – 95, 99% x emittances In horizontal 95% emittance is better for 1000th – 256 x 256 Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  19. Results – convergence criteria – best cases – 95, 99% y emittances In vertical 95% emittance is good enough even for 500 th M.p. – 256 x 256 Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  20. Results – worst case Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  21. Results – a little better… Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  22. Results – “a little better” vs. best cases… • 128 x 128 growth ratio order ~10^-2 (RMS) • 256 x 256 growth ratio order ~10^-3 (RMS) -> better accuracy Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  23. Conclusions • Thanks to this preliminary study we had an indication for a starting setting for transverse space charge simulations: 500th – 256x256 could be almost ever enough for RMS emittance behavior and halo formation studying… • We should increase the computational power for longer simulations. • Question #1 -> Between 95% or 99% emittance, which should we choose to study the halo formation? Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte

  24. Future implementations • Question #2 -> Which basic settings should we use (i.e. intensity and starting emittance) in the future as “final” PSB characteristics? • Longer simulations required (more turns, i.e. a few synch. periods) • “Lmax” effect -> beta function w-length is about 40 m in PSB ->Lmax up to 4 m (now 1 m) -> less S.C. nodes for integration! -> less CPU time but … what about physics? • Bumps introduction (static -> dynamic tables) • New scripts creation for “off-line” post-processing (FFT analysis for tunes, …) • Effects of shorter dipole magnets on the emittance growth with space charge • Errors in lattice introduction (misalignments and field errors) -> resonance analysis… long term Preliminary results of the PTC/ORBIT convergence studies in the PSB - Vincenzo Forte
