Abstract In order to analyze charged particle beam in an accelerator, a beam model is used to reduce number of degrees of freedom, e.g. charged disk model, charged cylinder model and macro-particle model. In numerical simulation, the macro-particle model, which has same mass-to-charge ratio, is widely used, since it does not require any symmetry of beam shape. However, the estimation of proper number of macro-particles is one of the important issues. In order to study the effect of the number of macro-particles for the numerical model, we defined a simple transformation to generate reduced distribution. The transformation was applied for one dimensional and two dimensional particle distributions. The static electric fields due to the transformed distributions were calculated. As a result, we confirmed the effectiveness of the transformation.
