COSY Infinity Version 7
Abstract
An overview over the features of version 7 of the code COSY INFINITY is
given. Currently distributed to about 160 registered users, the code
allows the computation and manipulation of maps of arbitrary order for
arbitrary arrangements o fields. Besides the conventional analysis tools
including various techniques for symplectic tracking, normal form methods,
hardware and reconstructive aberration correction, and achromat design,
several new features are presented. These include efficient methods to treat
fringe field, a variety of methods to directly use measured field data for
the computation of maps, as well as the computation and analysis of spin
dynamics. Furthermore, we give references regarding the practical use of
the new remainder differential algebraic methods, which among other things
allow fully rigorous estimates of stability times of nonlinear repetitive
motion.
