Abstract Beam dynamics simulation in electron gun, bunching and accelerating cells of new 10 Mev high-power electron linac was fulfieled with the help of developed at MEPhI SUMA * and BEAMDULAC-BL ** codes. Three-electrode electron gun was used to obtain up to 400-450 mA of pulse beam current which is necessary to produce 300 mA of the accelerated beam. Precise gun simulation was conducted to satisfy all necessary output beams characteristics, such as profile, energy spectrum, phase space size etc. Some additional calculation was conducted to provide wide range of gun output beam parameters which will be used for subsequent accelerator modification. The conventional biperiodical accelerating structure based on disk loaded waveguide was used in linac. Beam dynamics optimization was pointed to obtain effective beam bunching for all energy range and to achieve narrow energy spectrum. Simulation results shows that linac provides effective beam bunching and acceleration for wide bands of beam currents and energies.
