Vertex point (-VP) vs magnet center (-C)
Posted: 22 Nov 2016, 08:40
Dear Michael,
I'm using floor_coordinates command to get the absolute coordinates of the magnets.
For dipoles, one can get three points: the vertex point (-VP), the magnet center (-C) and the exit.
My question is: how is the center defined? Is it the center of the line connecting entrance and exit?
That is, point D on the attached drawing?
(one could also in principle define it in a different way, e.g. the symmetry point on the trajectory, i.e. point C)
Thanks!
