What is a Beam Line in the Silicon Brain of the Computer? | |
|
||
| In the immortal words of Clinton, it all depends what is 'is'. I intend to show that the definition in most codes is incorrect as far as tracking codes are concerned. It allows only trivial topologies like straight beam lines and closed rings. The correct structures must allow an infinite number of topologies which include colliders, figure eight, dogbones, Olympic rings, roller coasters, and combinations of these, etc' My conclusion is that beams lines are NOT sequences of magnets. There are no excuses in modern computer languages to remain stuck in the false ideas of the past. | ||
