problem with LSC

Post by Philippe Piot » 19 Oct 2011, 15:55

Hi,
I am trying to track with longitudinal space charge and keep getting an error of the form:

generating bunch 1.0
dumping bunch
tracking 1000 particles
Warning: only 0 of 1000 particles were binned (LSCDRIFT)!
This shouldn't happen.

Terminated by SIGSEGVProgram trace-back:

Does anyone know where such an error can come from? Thank you! -- Philippe.

Philippe,

Can you post a minimal example that shows the problem?

Philippe,

The problem is that the LSCDRIFT definition doesn't have the number of bins specified with the BINS parameter.

We'll modify the code so that it handles this better, but supplying a value should resolve the problem.
