Pradeep,

Please see the attached file for an example.

Chao, The recirculation element is to allow setup steps to take place prior to multi-turn tracking in a ring. The original inspiration was to allow tracking through a transport line and injection elements, followed by multi-turn tracking. Although the feature is kept for backward compatibility, it i...

Chao,

The problem is that your CHARGE element is downstream of a recirculation element (RC). So the beam only sees the CHARGE element on the first pass through the beamline. I don't think you need the recirculation element.

The problem is that our .csv file is corrupted. For example, look at lines 90 -0.01,-0.0018,-0.954122751767E-,01 -0.528339391746,, , 20007, -0.0001,2.22E-05,0.136713633070E-,02 -0.400245530917E-,, , and 20108 #VALUE!,#VALUE!,-0.528596975,0.388798795444E-,, and many others like them. Unfortunately, t...

Weijie, Thanks for posting this problem. It was interesting to analyze. (See attached for details.) I see two issues with the design. First, with only one rf cavity in the ring, the optics is badly distorted by the strong energy variation introduced by the wigglers; I addressed this by putting an rf...

Gunn, There are two ways to get this. You can supply a filename for the final output in the run_setup command. You'll find the Rij values in parameters in that output file. This is convenient if you are varying something in the system and want to see how the matrix elements change as a function of t...

Monika, You can use the sddssplit command to split the multi-page output files into many single-page files. Pairs of single-page files can then be fed to touschekLifetime. Once done running touschekLifetime, you can use sddscombine to combine the touschek lifetime results into a single file, which i...

Chao,

I wonder if in the case using bunch duplication you are setting the use_bunched_mode flag?

I would expect using N bunches to slow things down, because there is N times as much interprocess communication (assuming that IBS is a dominant factor in the simulation).
