Beam Optics
90 degree bending magnet
Whether or not a beam is strong enough to have an effect on the E or B field, LORENTZ is commonly used to characterize optical components along beam lines. LORENTZ 2D includes a mode for computing the optical coefficients (focal points, aberration coefficients, etc.) of axi-symmetric electric beam components.
Some examples:
- Focusing electrodes
- Steering magnets
- Electron microscopes
- Multipole beamline magnets
