GPT/IBSimu Benchmarking Checklist

Checklist for GPT/IBSimu simulations and benchmarking ionization routine

Done

• Centering electron bunch through 1.5m
• Ion production rate benchmarked

In Progress

• DC and bunched e-beam simulations
• Using Maxwellian distribution for ion energies

To Be Done

• Benchmarking secondary electron production
• Create (simple) simulation for benchmarking using everything (ionization, gun E-field, real B-field values, vacuum conditions, same initial distribution, etc.)
• For GPT:
  • Use local vacuum data in ionization routine (instead of assuming constant gas density)
  • Derive approximation for SEDCS for gas species other than H2 and He
  • Working with Bas to ensure space charge routine works correctly/accurately
