Description
Summary:Methods of calculating the expected rms orbit distortion and the expected peak orbit distortion for a large FODO synchrotron are described. An expression for the expected rms correction element dipole strength necessary to correct the closed orbit of a large FODO synchrotron is derived. The uncorrected closed orbit of the FNAL Tevatron accelerator is determined from beam position data and operational settings of the correction element dipole magnets. The uncorrected orbit and correction element dipole strengths are compared to the results of the Tevatron design study. Use of these expressions for SSC lattices is discussed.
