Title: Higher order multipole magnet tolerances

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7166977

Due to field impurities in the magnets in a storage ring or circular accelerator the values of the betatron frequencies for a given particle in a beam are dependent upon the energy and betatron amplitude of the particle as well as the values of the energy dispersion and betatron functions at the magnets. A method has been developed for finding the values of the betatron frequencies for any particle with given field impurities. This method has been used to study the quality of several preliminary designs of some of the quadrupole magnets in PEP by comparing the variations of the betatron frequencies over the maximum expected range of values of the particle energy and betatron amplitude. The expressions for the values of betatron frequencies as functions of the various beam and machine parameters are derived. Some of the results for the evaluation of two types of the PEP magnets are also presented. A discussion of these results is given as well. 3 refs., 5 figs., 2 tabs.
