Sextupoles chromatic correction
Posted: 01 Apr 2020, 09:18
Hi Michael,
I am trying to use sextupoles for reducing emittance growth in the beam line after the dipole. Since there is dispersion (in x), I expect that sextupoles just affect the emittance growth in x. But both emittances decrease using these sextupoles while there is dispersion just in x not in y plane. In y plane without dispersion these sextupoles should work like quadupole that makes emittance growth.
I have attached the lattice and tracking files.
Thank you in advance,
Farzad
