Hallo Michael Would you explain how to insert in the accelerator beam line addtional element - Wien filter in the Elegant simulation program? Would you also provide an example? Let's assume in units of meters that the x-direction is horizontal, the y-direction is vertical, and the z-direction is the...

Halo Michael, I am working on a magnetic arc and want to compress the beam from an initial bunch length of 4 ps to 2 ps and initial sigma_s = 1e-3. I have particle_distribution.sdds, and I want to add chirp and then optimize R56. I am asking how to add chirp if I am using &sdds_beam, not &bunched_be...

Halo Michael I attached the lattice and ran files to this post, I am still having a problem with acc/dec. the second acceleration is not completed to 55 MeV but around 35 MeV. I am doing optimization for the phase to be on the crest and the voltage and the problem is on the definition of the phase, ...

Dear Michael, I am optimizing the acceleration and deceleration process in an Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) using the RFCA element. The setup involves two 9-cell cavities: the first cavity operates with a phase of 45°, and the second cavity has a reversed-phase relative to the first. The goal is to op...

Halo, I am working on improving the beam stability and energy spread in ERL and I have a previous calculation for the peak voltage in the RF cavity, e.x: rfca, l =0.2563 , phase = 46.956 , volt = " 15.813e6 0.2563 * 0.54 *", N_kicks=520 I would like to understand how Elegant calculates these values ...
