Hi David and Andreas,

Thank you for your messages. I was busy the last few days looking into the subject.

My problem involves standing wave linacs.

David, do you have any insight into how easy it is to adapt ‘Hellweg’ to deal with standing wave linacs? Strategically I am thinking at a multi-step approach where we validate and benchmark Hellweg first, and then we implement beam loading into OPAL.

It would be some work. It's not something that will happen in someone's spare time.

Sergey and I wrote a proposal to do this, so I could try to quantify the necessary effort, but that in itself would require some thought.

If you have resources to pursue this, then feel free to contact me off-list and we can discuss.

Sincerely,

David
