Abstract
FEbeam is an all-in-one field emission data processing interface with the capability to analyze the field emission cathode performance in an rf injector by extracting the field enhancement factor, local field, and effective emission area from the FowlerNordheim equations. It also has the capability of processing beam imaging micrographs using its sister software, FEpic. The current version of FEbeam was designed for the Argonne Cathode Test-stand of the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator facility switch yard. With slight modifications, FEbeam could work for many rf field emission injectors. This software is open-source and can be found at GitHub.
