In a previous report we described the method for integration of the equations of motion in cylindrical coordinates through the nonlinear magnetic fields of the 180 degree SXLS bending magnets using a 4th order Runge-Kutta method and fields generated by the TOSCA program. Closed orbits were calculated for a sample two-coil conductor configuration -- one coil above and below the median plane -- and tunes of small amplitude oscillations about these orbits were evaluated. Several values of the betatron functions beta and eta were obtained at convenient points in the lattice where the alpha function was zero. In the present report, we describe the method for calculating the {alpha},{beta},{eta}and {eta}{prime} functions along the closed orbit within the magnet as well as the normalized field index function n/{rho}{sup 3}, where {rho} is the radius of curvature. The functions are then used to evaluate the synchrotron radiation integrals which yield the physical properties of the ring such as energy and betatron oscillation damping times, the damped emittance, and the energy loss per turn. These qualities are compared to previous calculations of Murphy and Vignola, who used a combined dipole plus gradient magnet with linear fringe field drop-off, and the agreement is excellent. 8 refs., 9 figs., 6 tabs.
