Abstract :
Long-term beam-electron cloud interaction is modeled with a 3D parallel continuous model originally developed for plasma wakefield acceleration modeling. The simulation results are compared with the two macro-particle model for strong head-tail instability. The two macro- particle model qualitatively captures some of the instability features of the beam. The code is then used to model and make predictions for the beam dynamics in the presence of an electron cloud for several present and future circular machines around the world.
