Modeling wiggler with hard edge dipoles
Wigglers and undulators are used as devices for generating synchrotron radiation. They are also used for modification of various beam properties circulating in a storage ring. Basic ‘dumping wiggler’ is used for change of the damping time, equilibrium emittance, and energy spread. In damping wigglers are used to increase the damping rate of the energy spread induced by the beam-beam interaction. The commonly used MAD and Elegant software has only simplified planar wiggler configuration and no model for a helical wiggler.
