Abstract :
The SNS ring injection dump beam line has been suffering high beam losses since its commissioning. In order to understand the mechanisms of beam losses, we have built 3D simulation models consisting of three injection chicane dipoles and one injection dump septum magnet. 3D particle trajectories in the models are obtained. The study has clearly shown the design problems causing beam losses in the injection dump beam line. This paper reports our findings and proposed remedies.
