Numerical Studies of the SSC Injection Process: Long Term Tracking

  • Chapter
Supercollider 2

Abstract

Results are presented for tracking protons within the Superconducting Super Collider during the injection phase for up to seven million turns. The results for the 4 cm and the 5 cm aperture machines are compared. X and y invariant amplitude and phase space information are given which are characteristic of bounded chaotic motion. The present long term tracking results were obtained using SSCTRK for groups of four particles started at four different equally spaced injection points on eight different machines, each characterized by a different random seed. A qualitative interpretation of the dynamical behavior of the protons is given in terms of some simple models using nonlinear differential equations.
