Fluka simulations for secondary ion beams
Chrysostomos ValderanisIlias Efthymiopoulos
C. Valderanis, I.Efthymiopoulos 2
Two parallel approaches in building the simulation
• Full geometry– Includes all active and passive elements of the
beam line– Tracking is handled by Fluka transport– To be used in the future
• Toy monte carlo– Includes target and degrader– Magnetic rigidity selection in an algorithm– To be used for rate predictions

Summary – I : Full geometry
• Dipoles, quadruples, collimators – In working condition
• Missing elements– Target and degrader– Beam instrumentation– Beam pipe
