2) Makethin (HB) : implementation of new options, and slicing of solenoids
(slides in
pdf)
It was agreed to make "minimizeparents" the default option.
3) Thin solenoid (AK) (slides in
pdf)
The "thin solenoid" element in tracking mode is now ready.
4) Future plans (FS) (slides in
ppt)
R. Tomas takes over the EMIT module.
5) A.O.B.
LHC beam 2 conversion to Sixtrack (MG, TR): it is not foreseen to implement the effect
of the "bv" flag in the sixtrack module (FS). A workaround ("Beam 4") is available.
ALFA (momentum compaction,
presently ~ R56 in dispersionless regions) does not take into account the energy
changes in cavities (CM): to be investigated
PTC matching not finished: OB is very busy, an ad hoc solution needs to be found (PS?)
tilt angle "lost" in makethin (RdM): not a makethin problem (HB), to be clarified
The last MADX meeting of this year will be held on December 16th.
