This paper presents a stabilization ofa Radio-Frequency Quadrupole simulation based on the quasi-Helmholtz projectors. A boundary element method applied to this case undergoes a low-frequency breakdown i.e the associated system of equations becomes increasingly ill-conditioned fordecreasing frequencies. This in practice implies that the convergence of iterative methods which are used to solve the linear system is poor. This paper reports that a quasi-Helmholtz projectors based stabilization is sucient to handle the level of realismrequired by applications.
