ELSEPARATOR: Electrostatic Separator
label: ELSEPARATOR,L=real,EX=real,EY=real,TILT=real;
An ELSEPARATOR (electrostatic separator) has four real
attributes:
- L:
The length of the separator (default: 0 m).
- EX:
The horizontal electric field strength (default: 0 MV/m).
A positive field increases px for positive particles.
- EY:
The vertical electric field strength (default: 0 MV/m).
A positive field increases py for positive particles.
- TILT:
The roll angle about the longitudinal axis (default: 0 rad). A
positive angle represents a clockwise of the electrostatic separator.
A separator requires the particle energy
(ENERGY)
and the particle charge
(CHARGE)
to be set by a BEAM command
before any calculations are performed.
Example:
BEAM,PARTICLE=POSITRON,ENERGY=50.0;
SEP: ELSEPARATOR,L=5.0,EY=0.5;
The straight reference system
for a separator is a cartesian coordinate system.
