MERLIN is a highly abstracted particle tracking code written in C++ that provides many unique features, and is simple to extend and modify. We have investigated the addition of high order wakefields to this tracking code and their effects on bunches, particularly with regard to collimation systems for both hadron and lepton accelerators. Updates have also been made to increase the code base compatibility with current compilers, and speed enhancements have been made to the code via the addition of multi-threading to allow cluster operation on the grid. In addition, this allows for simulations with large numbers of particles to take place. Instructions for downloading the new code base are given. |

Within the common programme on the analysis of collective instabilities at Diamond and SOLEIL, the numerical codes mbtrack and sbtrack have been extended to include a full description of the nonlinearities in the storage rings by means of the nonlinear one-turn map. We present the details of the map implementation and the recent results on the analysis of the effects of the nonlinear terms of the map on the characteristics of the collective instabilities at the two machines. |
