Abstract
An on-line model of the beam dynamics in the SNS Medium Energy Beam Transport line (MEBT) has been developed using MATLAB Graphics User Interface. The model performs beam simulation using TRACE-3D and/or PARMILA codes. The input data for the simulation are generated on-line using settings of the transport line elements read from the EPICS control system. Simulated beam profiles are compared with wire scanner measurements on-line. Various tools are provided for estimating and fitting input beam parameters, which are not measured in the MEBT. This paper provides a description of the model and presents results of experimental tests during commissioning of the SNS Front End.
