Abstract We describe a numerical model for measurements of the formation of long-lived electron clouds in a quadrupole magnet in the CESR storage ring. The shielded stripline detector measures the electron flux incident on the vacuum chamber wall directly in front of one of the poles of the magnet. The model includes photo-electron production by synchrotron radiation, electrostatic forces from the bunched positron beam and the cloud, macroparticle tracking in the field of the quadrupole, secondary electron emission from the 9.5-cm-diameter cylindrical stainless steel beam-pipe and an analytic calculation of the transmission function of the holes in the vacuum chamber which allow cloud electrons to reach the stripline collector. These modeling studies provide a quantitative understanding of the trapping mechanism which results in cloud electrons surviving the 2.3-microsecond time interval prior to the return of a train of positron bunches. These studies have been performed in the context of the CESR Test Accelerator program, which aims to quantify and mitigate performance limitations on future low-emittance storage and damping rings.
