Abstract :
A 352-MHz one-cell photocathode electron gun is studied. The simulations with PARMELA are done with two values of peak accelerating fields: 21 and 10 MV/m. Three cavity profiles are compared. The results are also discussed in view of the previous analytic theory. The space-charge effect with peak current greater than 300 A covers the RF effect. The beam qualities are not sensitive to cavity design
