COMPARISON OF BEAM-BEAM SIMULATION WITH EXPERIMENTS AT THE KEKB

The KEK B-factory (KEKB) is high luminosity electronpositron two ring collider and has high beam-beam parameter. To achieve such a high luminosity, it is important to study beam-beam effect. Newly, a beam-beam simulation code, which is based on a strong-strong model, was developed by K. Ohmi[3] to study beam-beam effect. For operation parameters of KEKB, we have carried out beam-beam simulations. In this report, we try to compare the results of the beam-beam simulations with the experiments. The simulation results are in good agreement with the experiments.
