  SolCalc is a software suite that computes and displays magnetic fields generated by a three dimensional (3D) solenoid system. Examples of such systems are the Mu2e magnet system and Helical Solenoids for muon cooling systems. SolCalc was originally coded in Matlab, and later upgraded to a compiled version (called MEX) to improve solving speed. Matlab was chosen because its graphical capabilities represent an attractive feature over other computer languages. Solenoid geometries can be created using any text editor or spread sheets and can be displayed dynamically in 3D. Fields are computed from any given list of coordinates. The field distribution on the surfaces of the coils can be displayed as well. SolCalc was benchmarked against a well-known commercial software for speed and accuracy and the results compared favorably.

  LHC will resume operation in 2015 at 6.5 TeV. The higher energy allows for smaller IP beta functions, further enhancing the optics errors in the triplet quadrupoles. Moreover the uncertainty in the calibration of some quadrupoles will slightly increase due to saturation effects. The complete magnetic cycle of the LHC will take longer due to the higher energy and extended squeeze sequence. All these issues require more precise and more efficient optics measurements and corrections to guarantee the same optics quality level as in 2012 when a 7% peak beta-beating was achieved. This paper summarizes the on-going efforts for achieving faster and more accurate optics measurements and corrections.

  The ILSF control system is supposed to operate with Epics system. The simultaneous use of Matlab Middle Layer (MML) and Accelerator Toolbox (AT) allow for parallel, high level machine control and accelerator physics application that communicate with control system via Epics via channel access. The MML has been papered for ILSF storage ring. Some high level applications are also tested in ILSF storage ring via MML.

  In order to design Button Beam Position Monitors (BPMs) for synchrotron facilities, one algorithm by C# have been developed which can calculate all required parameters to analyze optimal design based on vacuum chamber and button dimensions. Beam position monitors are required to get beam stabilities on submicron levels. For this purpose, different parameters such as capacitance, sensitivity versus bandwidth, intrinsic resolution, induced charge and voltage on buttons are calculated. Less intrinsic resolution and high sensitivity and capacitance are desired. To calculate induced charge and voltage on each button, Poisson's equation has been solved by Green method. For sensitivities calibration, two-dimensional map of BPM response is obtained theoretically and compared with the CST simulation map. Results show a good agreement where as their difference is less than 5%.
