摘要
This work presents an open-source code, FEgen, that generates initial field emission distributions based on the time-dependent Fowler-Nordheim equation. Current in-demand and open-source beam tracking software-such as ASTRA, IMPACT-T, and GPT-do not contain native distribution generator functions suitable for field emitted electron tracking and phase space analysis. The intuitive graphical user interface of FEgen generates input files shown to be fully compatible with both ASTRA and GPT. Here, detailed application examples demonstrating a subset of FEgen's capabilities are given by creating a customized emitter pattern with application to transverse beam shaping and longitudinal beam dynamic experiments.
