Hi Andreas,

I was under the impression that the apertures are used as a fixed geometrical boundaries which are defined in the Lab frame.

 

The RF cavity has an aperture associated with it but I know it is not active in v2.2, so I was trying to use ECOLLIMATOR to compensate for it.

 

I am curious, are all the collimators defined with respect to the Reference Particle frame?

 

If that is the case, how do I define a rectangular aperture in the Lab frame, i.e. an aperture that is FIXED in the Lab Frame? Do I have to modify the code?

 

Thanks,

Dragos

Dear Dragos, the collimator aperture can not be changed w.r.t. the local reference frame. 

I think you would need to estimate before running the simulation. Certainly one can

implement such a collimator model. If this is very important I can make a feature request

for you.

 

Cheers A

Hi All,

I have defined an ECOLLIMATOR like this:

 

BCOL: ECOLLIMATOR, L = 1, Z =0, X = 0, Y = 0, XSIZE = 0.002, YSIZE = 0.002, OUTFN = "BCOL";

 

so I have a circular aperture of 2mm radius. During the simulation the reference particle deviates from the central axis because of fields asymmetries. 

 

Is it possible that the circular aperture is defined with respect to the reference particle local reference frame instead of the laboratory reference frame?

 

It looks like the particles are no longer tracked if they are more than 2mm distance from the reference particle. I have attached two pictures that show the macroparticles bunch and the collimator wall from 2 different orrientations. On the 'cross section' view you can clearly see the circular aperture acting on the bunch but its position is obviously displaced to the right.

 

Thanks,

Dragos
