Previous: Introduction
The calculational features of the program are:
- treatment of general bunch distributions plus randomization,
- inclusion of bunch form factor, which reduces the effect of
impedance on the beam,
- shifting of the HOM frequencies to the closest dangerous resonant frequency,
- sweeping of the cavity higher-order mode (HOM) frequencies,
- randomization of the cavity higher-order mode (HOM) frequencies for Monte Carlo simulations,
- staggering of the HOM frequencies,
- including the effect of the beta function at the RF cavities for transverse motion.
The implementation features of the program are:
- C language coding,
- input file with namelist commands,
- HOM input data stored in convenient SDDS-format files,
- output files compatible with SDDS toolkits,
These items are briefly explained below.
