Orbit Correctors

Three types of closed orbit correctors are available:

HKICKER

A corrector for the horizontal plane,

VKICKER

A corrector for the vertical plane,

KICKER

A corrector for both planes.

label:KICKER, TYPE=string,APERTURE=real-vector,L=real,HKICK=real,VKICK=real;

They have the following attributes:

L

The length of the closed orbit corrector (default: 0 m).

KICK

The kick angle for either horizontal or vertical correctors. (default: 0 rad).

HKICK

The horizontal kick angle for a corrector in both planes (default: 0 rad).

VKICK

The vertical kick angle for a corrector in both planes (default: 0 rad).

A positive kick increases $p_{x}$ or $p_{y}$ respectively.

Examples:

HK1:HKICKER,KICK=0.001;
VK3:VKICKER,KICK=0.0005;
KHV:KICKER, HKICK=0.001,VKICK=0.0005;

The first kicker is rotated about the longitudinal axis by 10 degrees. The reference system for an orbit corrector is a Cartesian coordinate system.
