Hi Wei Hou,

 

When I did a similar exercise for the LCLS-II injector, one cause of discrepancy for me was the definition of Ekin.

Are you suppling the same particles distribution to ASTRA and OPAL?

Or letting the codes generate the distribution?

What does your distribution command look like?

 

Thanks,

 

Nicole

Subject: [Opal] Reference particle in OPAL

 

Dear OPAL developers,

 

This is Wei Hou TAN, graduate student working with Prof. Philippe Piot in the Northern Illinois University.

 

I would like to learn OPAL, starting by cross-checking its results with ASTRA.

 

In my toy example, I simulated a rf gun with both ASTRA and OPAL.

However, I am having problems getting same results in OPAL.

I have checked that both ASTRA and OPAL have the same distributions, same RF phase.

 

I suspected that OPAL has a different definition of reference particle but I could not find any documentations on it.

 

What is OPAL convention of reference particle ?

 

Thank you.

 

Regards

Wei Hou
