Abstract

Some high-energy experiments have suffered from bitter experience on synchrotron-radiation background. As a measure, we have developed a new calculation method of synchrotron radiation based on a real beam orbit, aiming at quantitative estimations of synchrotron-radiation backgrounds, and the construction of a possible alarm system for the background. An explanation and a demonstration of our method are given.

  9. SAD can calculate electric field produced by a point charge according to the Feynman- Heaviside formula which is derived from Maxwell’s equations without any approximation.
