Abstract

Transverse beam profiles are observed to broaden with increasing intensity in the Proton Storage Ring at the Los Alamos Neutron Scattering Center. Measured profiles are simulated with an H- injection model that includes a 2D particle-in-cell space charge calculation. Inclusion of space charge effects in the simulation improves the agreement between the experimentally observed profiles and the calculated profiles. The comparisons are made for a range of injected intensities.
