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, including the cavity voltage and phase for each acceleration section, as well as the R56 for the compression sections.

My question is how to set different r56 values for different compression sections in Elegant. Are the definitions of r56 the same in Elegant and Litrack?

Many thanks for any suggestion,
Zhenbiao.

Zhenbiao,

I've never used LiTrack, but I think the sign convention for R56 is the opposite of elegant's.

Usually in elegant we define the bunch compressors explicitly using bending magnets. However, it is possible to use the EMATRIX element to simulate a matrix defined by the matrix elements.

An example is attached.

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 effect is turned on, there is a spike in the current profile at the tail end. Is this caused by the CSR effect or an error in my code? If it's caused by the CSR effect, how can I eliminate the spike at the tail end and make the current profile more uniform?
