Description
After detailing the principle of CARA and its benefits for fusion sciences, general beam dynamics in an ideal CARA configuration are presented, with a focus on space-charge effects driven by an ampere-class beam.
Given the challenges specific to deuteron CARA design, a novel type of cavity is introduced to address these issues. Coupled with an MRI-inspired solenoid, this configuration enables preliminary practical design simulations, allowing study of overall transport dynamics in the vicinity of the machine.
Finally, such simulations are applied for an initial study of the future ion CARA testbench.
