Abstract: LORASR is a multi-particle tracking code optimized for the beam dynamics design of ‘Combined Zero Degree Structure (KONUS)’ lattices, which can benefit from an adapted input file structure and code architecture. Recent code developments focused on the implementation of tools for machine error studies and loss profile investigations, including also steering correction strategies. These tools are a stringent necessity for the design of high intensity linacs. Thus, the abilities of the present LORASR release allow performing a manifold of checks and optimizations before finalizing the layouts of KONUS-based or conventional linacs. Two representative examples are the MAX-MYRRHA Injector and the GSI FAIR Facility Proton Linac, both under development with strong participation of IAP, Frankfurt University. This paper presents the status of the LORASR code development with focus on the new features and illustrates the impact on current designs by examples taken from the above-mentioned projects.
