Abstract
We present two-dimensional simulations in (r-z) and r-θ) cylindrical geometries of imploding-liner-driven accelerators of rings of charged particles. We address issues of azimuthal and longitudinal stability of the rings. We discuss self-trapping designs and designs in which beam injection and extraction is aided by means of external cusp fields. Our simulations are done with the 2½-D particle-in-cell plasma simulation code CLINER, which combines collisionless, electromagnetic PIC capabilities with a quasi-MHD finite element package.
