Recent updates in the “Synchrotron Radiation Workshop” code, on-going developments, simulation activities, and plans for the future

Abstract: Recent updates in the "Synchrotron Radiation Workshop" physical optics computer code, including the transition to the Open Source development format, the results of the on-going collaborative development efforts in the area of X-ray optics, in particular grazing incidence mirrors, gratings and crystal monochromators, and in other areas, as well as some simulation activities for storage ring and X-ray free-electron laser sources are reported. Future development plans are discussed.

“…4 Different approaches with increasing level of complexity can be adopted to this aim, from simple analytical estimations to ray tracing simulations, up to more modern and more advanced codes based on wave optics and coherent mode decomposition. 5 This has led to a number of well-known and established codes such as Synchrotron Radiation Workshop (SRW ), 6 SPECTRA, 7 X-Ray Tracer (XRT), 8 SHADOW3 , 9 COherent Modes for SYnchrotron Light (COMSYL). 10 Notwithstanding the availability of accurate codes, the numerical description of partially coherent X-ray beams still poses serious challenges in terms of computational resources and simulation times.…”

“…Sánchez et al extended the traditional ray tracing models into a hybrid raytracing wave-optics approach in SHADOW3, which can deal with the partial coherence by changing the phase correlation of the source [10][11][12]. Chubar et al presented Synchrotron Radiation Workshop (SRW) model [13,14] to simulate partially coherent wavefront propagation from a finite emittance electron beam. SRW calculated the spontaneous emission of electrons through undulators using the retarded potential [15], simulated the wavefront propagation based on Fresnel-Kirchoff equation.…”
