Backtracking error

Dear Didier,

I have a project that consist of :

SPACE_CHARGE_COMP 0.9
SOL1 : FIELD_MAP 50 600 0 50 0.736784 0 0 1 MedSolb
DRIFT 382.4 50 0
DRIFT 200 50 0
END

I send an initial distribution and save the final distribution after the last drift. The transmission is 94%.

Then I choose this saved distribution as initial distribution and check the back simulation option. After this, all particles are lost in the field map, I don't understand how this is possible. I tried the back simulation with another distribution, same happened.

Transmission goes from 100% to 0% in one go.

Thanks for the help.
Sophie

Dear Sophie,

Please send me your project files, including the field map, otherwise it will be difficult for me to understand the problem.

Regards,

Didier
