Abstract
The computational tools used in the investigation of light-ion diode physics at Sandia National Laboratories are described. Applied-B ion diodes are used to generate intense beams of ions and focus these beams onto targets as part of Sandia's inertial confinement fusion program. Computer codes are used to simulate the energy storage and pulse forming sections of the accelerator and the power flow and coupling into the diode where the ion beam is generated. Other codes are used to calculate the applied magnetic field diffusion in the diode region, the electromagnetic fluctuations in the anode-cathode gap, the subsequent beam divergence, the beam propagation, and response of various beam diagnostics. These codes are described and some typical results are shown.
