Description
To achieve high intensity, high power or high luminosity, next-generation hadron accelerators like HIAF (High Intensity heavy ion Facility) and EicC (Electron ion collider in China) employ a lot of entirely new beam dynamics and new technology. The development of a simulation code CISP (Simulation Platform for Collective Instabilities) and a control system PACS (Physics-oriented Accelerator Control System) is underway in IMP (Institute of Modern Physics), China, which aims at building an advanced accelerator software platform for the design and operation of these facilities. CISP is a scalable multi-macroparticle simulation code that can simulate basic beam dynamics, acceleration, barrier bucket bunch merging, space charge effects, collective instabilities, feedback systems, etc. and their combining effects in a single simulation. After performing benchmarks with theory results and results of other simulation codes, CISP has been applied to research special beam dynamics in HIAF-BRing successfully. PACS is an advanced accelerator high-level control system which concentrates on transforming beam dynamics studies into online control models perfectly and quickly. After about 10-month development, a version of PACS has been deployed to HIRFL (Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou). The first beam commissioning with PACS in August 2020 was quite successful. PACS is in operation in HIRFL now and will be deployed to SESRI (Space Environment Simulation and Research Infrastructure) which is also a national facility in China. In the future, CISP and PACS will be integrated into a unified software platform that can significantly improve the design and operation in the next-generation research and application accelerator facilities.
