Meeting Notes
Patrcik presented High Level Application Requirements for a Beta Matching.ppt attached.
...
Desire to match to any slice input. Patrick will change slide.
Under User inputs Under GUI/ user inputs -
allow weighting factors and fitting constraint bands; soft constraints for alphas and betas
allow user input of soft limits for magnets, as the BMIN and BMAX's are sometimes not useful for operations.
In emittance app (also discussed previously during emittance requirements review) show the following parameters: design alpha/beta/asymettry and limits on quads at PROF/WIRE
For BMAG_X + BMAG_Y result, divide by 2 (to normalize to "1")
Propagate Twiss backwards to upstream marker point that makes sense.
Integrate with SCORE API for backout purposes
Options for constraints:
1) minimize strength
2) minimize change
3) minimize difference from design (config/ or reference); editable in case design values are off
4) or, minimize (beta)*2 / (focal length)*2 per quad (suggestion by Paul)
Start by picking one way, like 4) to implement constraints for Phase 1. Architecture to allow easy addition & modification of constraint implementations.
Need adjustable weighting on target parameters and actuators.
Need to look
