WEPOR011	Lattice Matching with Elegant at ELSA	2690
	J.-P. Thiry, W. Hillert ELSA, Bonn, Germany
	The electron stretcher ring ELSA provides a beam of polarized electrons of up to 3.2 GeV energy. To preserve the initial degree of polarization, several depolarizing resonances have to be compensated during the fast energy ramp of 6 GeV/s. Beam depolarization, caused by crossing these resonances is studied using comprehensive numerical calculations. These depend essentially on a precise model of the actual magnetic field distributions, explicitly taking into account misalignments. Hence it is necessary to match the theoretical lattice to the actual accelerator. In a first step the alignment of all magnets has been examined and improved. This was done by using standard survey equipment and precise electronic spirit levels. In a second step the concept of response matrix fitting is used for further, beam based, lattice matching. Particle tracking and optics calculations are carried out using elegant, a fully 6D accelerator toolbox. Lattice matching is done by repeatedly calling elegant and utilizing a modified Levenberg-Marquardt optimizer. In this contribution we will describe our lattice fitting implementation.

The electron stretcher ring ELSA provides a beam of polarized electrons of up to 3.2 GeV energy.

Beam depolarization, caused by crossing these resonances is studied using comprehensive numerical calculations.

Hence it is necessary to match the theoretical lattice to the actual accelerator. In a first step the alignment of all magnets has been examined and improved.
