Hi Michael: I used 4 CSRCSBEN elements to define a bunch compressor, and varying the angel of the CSRCSBEN elements to match R56. I obtained different current profiles when turning on and off the CSR effect. When the CSR effect is turned off, I obtained the desired current profile. When the CSR effe...

Hi, The structure of our superconducting linear accelerator is Inj+LH+L1+BC1+L2+BC2+L3. Inj is an injector; LH is a laser heater; L1, L2 and L3 are acceleration sections; BC1 and BC2 are compression sections. I optimized the longitudinal operating points of the linear accelerator using Litrack, incl...

Hi everyone: I'm using element BUMPER to simulate a nonlinear kicker. What do xpFactor and ypFactor in a deflection_map file represent? How can I get xpFactor and ypFactor? What I have is the strength of the magnetic field B that changes with the abscissa x. Can I write a DEFLECTION_MAP file with x ...

Hi Micheal,

What do x, y, xpFactor and ypFactor in map1.sdds represent respectively? What I have is the strength of the magnetic field B that changes with the abscissa x. Can I write a DEFLECTION_MAP file with x and B?

Hi Michael,

I have seen the DEFLECTION_MAP parameter from the <elegant> file, but I'm still confused about how to describe a particle with coordinates (x,y,t,δ), so, do you have a example file about the DEFLECTION_MAP?Could you please send it over?
Thank you very much.

Best wishes,

Hi, I’m using ELEGANT to simulate the injection beam, but when I wrote the code of the kicker, I don’t know how to express the nonlinear kicker. The magnetic field of the nonlinear kicker is a bit like the octupole magnet, however, I’m not sure if I can replace the magnetic field of a nonlinear kick...
