Parallel code NSBC: Simulations of relativistic nuclei scattering by a bent crystal
Description
Abstract The presented program was designed to simulate the passage of relativistic nuclei through a bent crystal. Namely, the input data is related to a nuclei beam. The nuclei move into the crystal under planar channeling and quasichanneling conditions. The program realizes the numerical algorithm to evaluate the trajectory of nucleus in the bent crystal. The program output is formed by the projectile motion data including the angular distribution of nuclei behind the crystal. The program could be u... Title of program: NSBC (Nuclei Scattering by Bent Crystal) Catalogue Id: AEQT_v1_0 Nature of problem Here we deal with planar channeling of fast particles in a bent crystal. The channeled projectile moves along bent planes being in such a way deflected at large angles from the initial direction of motion. This effect is recognized as accelerator techniques to shape the beam. Other attractive phenomenon is known as volume reflection of quasichanneled projectiles. Volume reflected projectiles can also be deflected at essential angles. In general, channeled and reflected particles are deflected in ...
