Hoi Seongyeol unfortunately I do not really understand what you mean.

We currently do not have a “regression test” (as far as I know) of a transverse deflecting cavity. 

Cheers A

Dear all,

One more thing: Here, we tried to implement the traveling wave structure with separate components with 3Ddynamic type.

For the real part, we set the field to be [Re(E), Im(H)] and imaginary part to be [Im(E), Re(H)] using standing wave RFCavity element.

And, for the TDC (traveling wave cavity) element, we superimposed real and imaginary parts by setting the element like below: 

================================================================

TDC_Re:   RFCavity, L = Ltdc, VOLT = 1, ORIGIN = {0.0, 0.0, 0.05},
       ORIENTATION = {0.0, 0.0, 0.0}, TYPE = "STANDING", 
       FMAPFN = "DeflectorRe.T7", FREQ = 11700.0, LAG = tdcPhase;

TDC_Im:   RFCavity, L = Ltdc, VOLT = 1, ORIGIN = {0.0, 0.0, 0.05},
       ORIENTATION = {0.0, 0.0, 0.0}, TYPE = "STANDING", 
       FMAPFN = "DeflectorIm.T7", FREQ = 11700.0, LAG = tdcPhase-Pi/2; // +pi/2 or -pi/2 according to fieldmap data

TDC: Line = (TDC_Re, TDC_Im);

=================================================================

In addition to the setting we tried, I would like to get more confidence through the benchmarking data of traveling wave TDC example you provide.

I am looking forward to your message!

Best regards,

Seongyeol

제목: Question regarding traveling wave RF transverse deflecting cavity

 

Dear all,

Hello, this is Seongyeol Kim, a postdoc with Argonne Wakefield Accelerator Facility in Argonne National Laboratory.

Currently, I am trying to perform formatting and implementing the traveling wave transverse deflecting cavity to the OPAL simulation.

I found that 3Ddynamic fieldtype for the OPAL simulation only includes real part of the fieldmap,

I think adding the imaginary part for implementing traveling wave structure is necessary, but I am not sure how to add it.

I was wondering if you could provide an example of the traveling wave transverse deflecting cavity. For me it will be a nice example and benchmarking data for our TDC in the OPAL simulation.

I am looking forward to hearing from you!

Best regards,

Seongyeol
