Machine learning-driven computations of 3D Coherent Synchrotron Radiation

Year: 2026
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Calculating the effects of Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) is one of the most computationally expensive tasks in accelerator physics. Here, we use convolutional neural networks (CNN's), along with a latent conditional diffusion (LCD) model, trained on physics-based simulations to speed up calculations. Specifically, we produce the 3D CSR wakefields generated by electron bunches in circular orbit in the steady-state condition. Two datasets are used for training and testing the models: wakefields generated by three-dimensional Gaussian electron distributions and wakefields from a sum of up to 25 three-dimensional Gaussian distributions. The CNN's are able to accurately produce the 3D wakefields ~250-1000 times faster than the numerical calculations, while the LCD has a gain of a factor of ~34. We also test the extrapolation and out-of-distribution generalization ability of the models. They generalize well on distributions with larger spreads than what they were trained on, but struggle with smaller spreads.
