START TO END SIMULATIONS OF LOW EMITTANCE TUNING AND STABILIZATION

The principal beam dynamics challenge to the subsystems between the damping ring and the collision point of future linear colliders is expected to be the tuning and stabilization required to preserve the transverse emittance and to collide nanometer-scale beams. Recent efforts have focused on realistically modelling the operation and tuning of this region, dubbed the Low Emittance Transport (LET). We report on the development of simulation codes which permit integrated simulation of this complex region, and on early results of these simulations. Future directions of LET simulation are also revealed.
