I found one in the examples "storageRingRfNoise" that is close to what I want to do But it shows an error message below when ILMatrixSetup is executed. Error for C:\Program Files\APS\SDDS ToolKit x64\sddsconvert.exe: Unable to read layout--no header lines found (SDDS_ReadLayout) Error for C:\Program...

Dear Michael, Hello. I am trying to simulate a single particle behaviour with a dynamic error in a storage ring to estimate the effect of RF errors. I checked several examples, but couldn't find one that set an error that changes each turn in a ring. &vary_elements with an external sdds file can be ...

Dear Michael, I tried to run the attached file on a Windows machine with the recent version of Elegant (2023.1.0) but it was not working. screen_shot.png Apart from this issue, the download of SDDS Python 3.10x64.msi on the APS website is not accessible. https://www.aps.anl.gov/Accelerator-Operation...

Dear Michael,

I thought I posted a zipped file including a lattice and .ele file but it was not.
Here I enclosed the file. Please check it. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Dear Michael, I tried running "&correct" on a Windows machine with a recent elegant version (2022 Nov. 15). But it was completed prematurely without any error message (see the attached picture). The same file is tried on a different version (2018 Jun 13) and works fine. It looks like a bug. Could yo...

Dear Michael, I am trying to do a simulation using Pelegant with particle coordinates defined by a sdds file (ASCII format). But it shows the error message "Unable to read ASCII file with SDDS_MPI" when the code is checking the sdds file. Since the file is working well with single-core elegant runs,...

Dear Michael I have tried the posted example "run1.new and run2.ele" in Elegant version 2020.5 (Dec 11, 2020) as well as 2020.3 (Jul 30, 2020) but the &correct does not work on Windows PC. It is terminated abnormally at the step of "computing correction matrix". Could you check the issue? Best regar...

Thank you for your kind explanation with a good example.
I have checked that again and found that the kick effect is smaller than the initial angular distribution.

Dear Michael thank you for your reply. What I exactly want to try is that a phase-dependent kick by the cavity since the transverse electric field of a TM01 cavity depends not only on a beam offset but also on the cavity phase. But there is no clear correlation between t and xp when a tracking simul...
