Analytical results closely match simulation data
Emittance growth is significant for certain collimator geometries
The study offers improved predictive tools for accelerator design
Abstract
In this paper we revisit the calculation of the emittance dilution of charged particle bunches due to collimator wakefield effects in the paraxial approximation. We also compare analytical results with numerical simulations considering the example of a collimator structure installed in the Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) at KEK
