Abstract At KEK Compact ERL (cERL) we are aiming to produce high-current and low-emittance electron beams (up to 10 mA) without significant beam loss. We believe that beam halo makes a significant impact into the beam loss. Therefore, we are performing beam loss simulations to meet the results of the beam loss measurements*. In particular, a simulation of the bunch tail originated from the electron gun was performed to understand the mechanisms of the beam halo formation. Since some measured beam profiles demonstrated unexpected halo particles, several factors such as misalignment of beam line elements and kicks from the steering coils were added into the simulation. Simulation study results are compared with the related beam loss and halo measurements here.
