Abstract :
A suite of nuclear and atomic physics codes for computing a variety of quantities relevant for heavy-ions over a wide energy range passing through material were implemented in the DA-based beam optics code COSY Infinity. As extensions to COSY we also developed a limited fission model, map computation for beam-material interactions, and a hybrid map-Monte-Carlo mode that allows relatively fast and accurate fragment separator design, end-to-end modeling and simulations, and performance optimization. Some results are briefly mentioned; details will be published elsewhere.
