e-cloud'02 workshop
Geneva, 15-18 April 2002

Mini-Workshop on Electron-Cloud Simulations for Proton and Positron Beams (ECLOUD'02)

http://wwwslap.cern.ch/collective/ecloud02

Topics:
    Simulations of electron cloud build up, decay time, clearing gap
    Effective transverse and longitudinal wake fields induced by the cloud
    Simulations and analytical treatments of transverse instabilities  
    Coherent tune shift and incoherent tune spread
    Simulations of possible cures or remedies
    Plasma approaches to the electron-cloud problem
    Synergies between electron cloud, impedance, space charge and beam beam

Goals:
    Benchmark simulations against beam observations and against each other
    Determine which simulation approaches best represent reality
    Document present understanding and determine important open questions
    Develop a programme for future research and development 
    Strengthen and expand international collaborations for this work
