A new warm snake has been produced for avoiding the transverse coupling resonance in the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). The warm snake is the world?s first normal conducting helical dipole partial snake which has a double pitch structure to allow spin rotation with no net beam offset or deflection with a single magnet. The warm snake is 2.6m long, and has a field of 1.5 Tesla for a 9 degrees spin rotation. The pitches, current density, and shims were optimized by using OPERA_3D / TOSCA. The magnetic field harmonics have been measured using a system of 51 mm long, 34 mm radius tangential coils. The axial variation of the dipole field angle agrees very well with the calculations, indicating no significant construction errors. However, the measured transfer function shows a discrepancy of 4% which may be caused by BH-curve differences, deformation of the iron and packing factor of the laminations. To correct the beam trajectory the operating current was adjusted and shims were installed on the end plates. These optimization studies, and comparison with measurements, will be shown.

For RHIC's collision lattices the dominant sources of transverse non-linearities are located in the interaction regions. The field quality is available for most of the magnets in the interaction regions from the magnetic measurements, or from extrapolations of these measurements. We discuss the implementation of these measurements on the MADX models of the Blue and the Yellow rings and their impact on beam stability.

The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), currently under construction at Oak Ridge, Tennessee, is a collaborative effort of six U.S. Department of Energy partner laboratories. With over 312 magnets and 251 power supplies that comprise the beam transport lines and the accumulator ring, it is a challenge to maintain a closed loop on the variable parameters that are integral to these two major systems. This paper addresses the input variables, responsibilities and design parameters used to define the SNS magnet and power supply systems.
