We agreed to form expert groups to seek more concrete areas for the development of concrete collaboration in 4 areas:
| Space charge/collective effects: ◦ Code-to-code validation ◦ Code-to-data validation ◦ Conceivable to develop collaborative code development. | Beam dynamics and simulation: • Electrostatic focusing/Stage I • FFA • Inclusion of space charge in linac and ring | Plasma lenses, source and capture: • Consideration of discharge lens alongside electron plasma lens • Understanding source and capture | Conventional source: • Performance of conventional source • Protons and ion | | --- | --- | --- | --- |
We agreed to “self organise” expert groups and to organise a follow up meeting of CERN ABP and LhARA in around 2 months to review progress.
