  • Abstract
    The need for realistic accelerator simulations is greater than ever before due to the needs of design projects such as the ILC and optimization for existing machines. Sophisticated codes utilizing large-scale parallel computing have been developed to study collective beam effects such as space charge, electron cloud, beam-beam, etc. We will describe recent advances in the solvers for these effects and plans for enhancing them in the future. To date the codes have typically applied to a single collective effect and included just enough of the single-particle dynamics to support the collective effect at hand. We describe how we are developing a framework for realistic multi-physics simulations, i.e., simulations including the state-of-the-art calculations of all relevant physical processes.
