The OPAL Discussion Forum

[Tomas Matlocha <matlocha AT ujf.cas.cz>]

Hi Mael,

the ic.dat file is generated by FIXPO code which is external code for equilibrium orbit calculation and is not part of OPAL. 

The Tune calculation implementation to OPAL-cycl itself is currently in progress. It works well for machines with higher tunes i.e. PSI Ring, unfortunately for small machines (my case) the results are not fully relevant yet.

I'm sure there will be some skilled OPAL user who can give you more precise answer.

Best regards,

Tomas

Hello, 

 

I am Mael Fichou, french engineer working on cyclotron project.

In order to evaluate the use of your OPAL software for our products studies, I am trying to run a tune simulation and am wondering how you obtained the ic.dat file,

Could you advise on what kind of software I could use to obtain these information ? Checking a file example, I don't understand how you generate the third parameter (Pr).

 

Thank you very much for your help,

 

Sincerely,

 

Mael Fichou
