Thin Lenses
All multipole-like elements
(RBEND, SBEND, QUADUPOLE, SEXTUPOLE, OCTUPOLE, MULTIPOLE)
can have a finite or a zero length.
For finite length the multipole coefficients are the coefficients per
unit length;
for zero length they are interpreted as the integrated strength.
The SAVE command converts thin elements to
thin multipoles in MAD-8 format, if
OPTION,MAD8
is active.
