solensim

Solenoid electromagnet lens design tool.

Aims:

• flexibly and capably calculate solenoid fields with yoke, and analyze their effect on various electron beams via tracking and analytic methods;
• optimize magnet design in accordance with given search regions and target functionality demands.

Currently implemented:

• ASTRA interface
• Basic field calculations and characterization

Currently 100% usable:

• ASTRA interface

Documentation:

• WIP/TODO

Dependencies:

• numpy, pandas, scipy, f90nml
• ASTRA
• Has not been tested/configured to work with Windows, i.e. linux only

To get ASTRA executables, sh get_astra.sh inside the (main) solensim directory

To use, please run solensim.py from within this directory in an iPython environment of choice.
