Abstract :
We investigated simulations on the effects of the wakefield on emittance growth at the 2.5 GeV PLS linac. The effects of initial beam offset, bunch charge, misalignments of a accelerating structures and magnets on the emittance growth are considered in the simulation. It is shown that BNS damping effectively reduces emittance growths due to the these causes. Based on the simulation results, maximum possible beam current per bunch for the stable beam operation of linac is estimated to be 3 nC
