Abstract
The unconventional size and the possibility of transverse displacement of the magnets in the EMMA non-scaling FFAG motivates a careful study of particle behavior within the EMMA ring. The magnetic field map of the doublet cell is computed using a Finite Element Method solver; particle motion through the field can then be found by numerical integration, using (for example) OPERA, or ZGOUBI. However, by obtaining an analytical description of the magnetic field (by fitting a Fourier-Bessel series to the numerical data) and using a differential algebra code, such as COSY, to integrate the equations of motion, it is possible to produce a dynamical map in Taylor form. This has the advantage that, after once computing the dynamical map, multi-turn tracking is far more efficient than repeatedly performing numerical integrations. Also, the dynamical map is smaller (in terms of computer memory) than the full magnetic field map; this allows different configurations of the lattice, in terms of magnet positions, to be represented very easily using a set of dynamical maps, with interpolation between the coefficients in different maps*.
