Abstract
The use and content of Phase I of the accelerator physics code ZAP, which calculates the performance of a storage ring in terms of the effects of beam intensity dependent phenomena and the limitations they impose. A brief overview is provided of the code and the types of calculations that can be performed with it. The types of calculations available include: single bunch thresholds, single bunch longitudinal parameters and energy scaling tables, longitudinal coupled-bunch instabilities, transverse coupled-bunch instabilities, gas scattering lifetime, free electron laser formulae, intrabeam scattering, Touschek scattering, and ion trapping formulae. Examples of the required inputs and resultant outputs for each of the options are given. The theoretical foundations behind ZAP are summarized, providing the relevant formulations, physical models, and particularly the equations used in the code in evaluating the various effects that are computed.
