Dear Michael,
as title indicates: is there a possibility to simulate combined function magnets in ELEGANT?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,

Slava,
Sorry I didn't see this sooner.
You can simulated combined function dipoles using SBEND and CSBEND. The KQUSE element allows simulating a combined-function quad/sextupole. The KQUAD and QUAD elements also support dipole steering fields.

Re: Combined function magnets?
I add a very basic question to this topic.
I verified that a dipole (SBEND with edge angles to make it RBEND, for example) with nonzero K1 behaves as a dipole+integrated quadrupole, where the quadrupole focusing happens to be in both transverse planes (neglect focusing from edges at this stage).
Question: is there any way to switch the quad focusing on in one plane only?
Thanks,
Simone

Simone,
There's no way to do that. I don't think there is a physical way to have fields in the body of the magnet that focus in one plane only. If you can tell me a bit more about what you are trying to model, I might be able to suggest something.
