apace 0.0.1

Another Particle Accelerator Code

apace

apace is yet another particle accelerator code designed for the optimization of beam optics. It is available as Python packages and aims to provide a convenient and straightforward API to make use Python's numeros scientific libaries.

Installing

Install and update using pip:

pip install -U apace

Dependencies

• Python 3.7 or higher
• CFFI 1.0.0 or higher
• NumPy/SciPy
• Matplotlib

A Simple Example

import apace

import apace as ap

Create a ring consisting of 8 FODO cells:

D1 = ap.Drift('D1', length=0.55)
Q1 = ap.Quad('Q1', length=0.2, k1=1.2)
B1 = ap.Bend('B1', length=1.5, angle=0.392701, e1=0.1963505, e2=0.1963505)
Q2 = ap.Quad('Q2', length=0.4, k1=-1.2)
fodo = ap.Cell('FODO-CELL', [Q1, D1, B1, D1, Q2, D1, B1, D1, Q1])
ring = ap.MainCell('FODO-RING', [fodo] * 8)

Calculate the twiss parameters:

twiss = ap.Twiss(ring)

Plot horizontal and vertical beta functions using matplotlib:

plt.plot(twiss.s, twiss.beta_x, twiss.beta_y, twiss.eta_x)
