Orbit correction methods

Post by jrudolph » 30 Jul 2013, 02:40

Hi,

I implemented trajectory correction using method "global" as this is used in most of the examples. It is working.
Then I started playing around with different methods to see what's the difference. I plotted the uncorrected and the corrected trajectories from the trajectory output option. When using "one-to-one", the uncorrected trajectory in *.traj is different to the uncorrected trajectory calculated with "global" though the errors are identical. Same appears for "one-to-best" and "one-to next". I checked the uncorrected trajectory from "global" with Cx from the *.cen file which comfirmed "global" to be right.
Is this a bug or do I overlook something?

Can you post some files that illustrate the problem? I can understand that the corrected trajectories would differ, but the uncorrected trajectories ought to be the same. Perhaps if you have BPM noise turned on and are running several steps, there might be a difference.
