Abstract
A collimator-element routine has been developed for the lattice and tracking code DIMAD, to facilitate simulation of the beam collimation system for the TRIUMF (Tri-University Meson Facility) KAON Factory accelerators. Multiple Coulomb scattering, energy loss, and elastic nuclear scattering are simulated, and the fraction of particles undergoing inelastic nuclear events is estimated. The routines are accurate over a large energy range, up to about 1 TeV. Results for the beam collimation system of the KAON Factory booster synchrotron are presented.<>
