Abstract :
Calabazas Creek Research, Inc. (CCR) has included a nonlinear magnetostatic vector finite-element solver in its trajectory and particle-in-cell (PIC) code, Beam Optics Analyzer. With its seamless integration and intuitive graphical user interface, the new 3D magnetostatic field solver in BOA will help to design electron guns with complex coil geometries and high power beams that generate self magnetic fields. Convergence of the nonlinear magnetic solver is demonstrated. The effect of the self field on the electron beam is described.
