Abstract

Numerical calculation of relativistic charged particle beams moving in axisymmetric systems in which the presence of a residual neutral gas is possible is considered. In this content it is essential to consider phenomena related to collisions between charged particles and neutrals (for example, ionization and charge transfer). Algorithms are constructed for numerical modeling of ionization processes within the framework of the ERA program complex [1]. Solutions of model and practical problems are presented as examples. Such problems were studied previously in [2, 3] where ionization processes were considered by a more complex method requiring a greater volume of calculations but valid at lower pressures.
