Sympletic tracking methods for insertion devices: a Robinson wiggler example

Modern synchrotron light sources are often characterized with high-brightness synchrotron radiation from insertion devices. Inevitably, insertion devices introduce nonlinear distortion to the beam motion. Symplectic tracking is crucial to study the impact, especially for the low- and medium-energy storage rings. This paper uses a Robinson wiggler as an example to illustrate an universally applicable analytical representation of the magnetic field and to summarizes four different symplectic tracking methods.

Polarised Geant4 - Applications at the ILC

Geant4 is a Monte Carlo simulation framework for the description of interactions of particles and matter. Starting with version 8.2 a new package of QED physics processes is available, allowing for the studies of interactions of polarised particles with polarised media dedicated to beam applications. In this contribution some details about the implementation are presented and applications to the linear collider are discussed.

Polarised Positrons for the ILC

For the planned International Linear Collider it is intended to have both -- electron and positron -- beams polarised. This offers a great benefit for many physics studies, but also provides a challenge for the engineering of the machine. A polarised positron source that meets the machine parameters is topic of current design studies and prototype experiments.
