Abstract We discuss a new quasistatic 3D particle-in-cell code LCODE3D for simulating plasma wakefield acceleration, which is a modified version of the quasistatic 2D3V code LCODE, focus on the numerical noise of the plasma solver and propose methods for reducing it. We compare different particle shape functions, as these functions affect the code stability. We also introduce the so-called dual plasma approach, which improves stability and dampens small-scale noise. After applying the proposed methods, the results of the new code closely agree with LCODE simulation results.
