Computational Accelerator Physics 2002

This volume provides an overview of the state of the art in computational accelerator physics, based on papers presented at the seventh international conference at Michigan State University, October 2002. The volume covers topics such as particle tracking and ray tracing, transfer map methods, methods for solving time-dependent Maxwell equations and static magnetic problems, as well as space charge and beam-beam effects. The text discusses state of the art computational environments, including parallel clusters, visualization, and new programming paradigms. It is ideal for scientists and engineers working in beam or accelerator physics, and related areas of applied math and computer science.Berz, M. is the author of 'Computational Accelerator Physics 2002 ', published 2005 under ISBN 9780750309394 and ISBN 0750309393.
