Control of beam halo formation through nonlinear damping and collimation
This paper demonstrates that transverse beam halos can be controlled by combining nonlinear focusing and collimation. The study relies on one-dimensional, constant focusing particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations and a particle-core model. Beams with linear and nonlinear focusing are studied. Calculation...
