    • correlationMatrixFromT3d

      public CovarianceMatrix correlationMatrixFromT3d(Twiss t3dX, Twiss t3dY, Twiss t3dZ)

      Builds a correlation matrix from Twiss parameters in the three phase planes. The Twiss parameters are assumed to be in the units used by Trace3D. The beam is also assumed to be centered (on axis), thus the correlation matrix equals the covariance matrix (usually denoted sigma).

      NOTE: The returned matrix is in homogeneous coordinates of the block diagonal form 

            | Rxx   0   0   0 |
      |   0 Ryy   0   0 |
      |   0   0 Rzz   0 |
      |   0   0   0   1 |
      where Rii are 2x2 symmetric blocks corresponding to each phase plane. Clearly the phase planes are uncoupled.

      The covariance matrix is the second central moment of the beam distribution defined by

      sigma = <( z-<z> )2> = <zzT>-<z><z>T = <zzT>
      since since the centroid <z>=0.

      Parameters:
      t3dX - Twiss parameters describing the beam ellipse in the x plane
      t3dY - Twiss parameters describing the beam ellipse in the y plane
      t3dZ - Twiss parameters describing the beam ellipse in the z plane
      Returns:
      correlation matrix corresponding to the above Twiss parameters

    • correlationMatrixFromT3d

      public CovarianceMatrix correlationMatrixFromT3d(Twiss t3dX, Twiss t3dY, Twiss t3dZ, PhaseVector centroid)

      Builds a correlation matrix from Twiss parameters in the three phase planes. The Twiss parameters are assumed to be in the units used by Trace3D. The correlation matrix also has the mean values corresponding to the mean value vector <z> provided in the argument. The mean value vector centroid is also assumed to be in the units used by Trace3D. It is also assumed to have the form

      centroid = <z> = (<x>, <x'>, <y>, <y'>, <dPhi>, <dW>, 1)

      The correlation matrix is computed by first computing the covariance matrix (usually denoted sigma in the literature) from the Twiss parameters then adjusting the value according to the effects of being "off center". This is done by adding the tensor product of the mean value vector <z>.

      To see this not that the correlation matrix is the second moment of the beam distribution defined by

      <zzT>
      Thus, denoting sigma the covariance matrix we have
      sigma = <( z-<z> )2> = <zzT>-<z><z>T
      or
      <zzT> = sigma + <z><z>T

      NOTE: The returned matrix is in homogeneous coordinates of the block diagonal form 

            | Rxx   0   0    0 |
      |   0 Ryy   0    0 |   +  <z><z>T
      |   0   0 Rzz    0 |
      |   0   0   0    1 |
      where Rii are 2x2 symmetric blocks corresponding to each phase plane and <z> is the vector of mean values in the phase plane, e.g., <z>=(<x>, <x'>, <y>, <y'>, <z>, <z'>).

      Parameters:
      t3dX - Twiss parameters describing the beam ellipse in the x plane
      t3dY - Twiss parameters describing the beam ellipse in the y plane
      t3dZ - Twiss parameters describing the beam ellipse in the z plane
      centroid - phase position of the beam centroid
      Returns:
      correlation matrix corresponding to the above Twiss parameters and centroid

    • centroidFromXal

      public PhaseVector centroidFromXal(CovarianceMatrix matCorrel)
      Compute and return the beam centroid coordinates from the correlation matrix in homogeneous coordinates. The correlation matrix is assumed to be in MKS units used by XAL and the returned centroid coordinate vector is in phase coordinates units used by Trace3D.
      Parameters:
      matCorrel - correlation matrix <zzT> in MKS units
      Returns:
      coordinates of the centroid in Trace3D units

    • twissParametersFromXal

      public Twiss[] twissParametersFromXal(CovarianceMatrix mat)
      Computes and return the Twiss parameters for each plane that correspond to the given correlation matrix. The Twiss parameters are returned in the units used by Trace3D. The correlation matrix is assumed to be in MKS units used by XAL.

      NOTE: This method ignores any coupling between phase planes and any offsets of the beam centroid from the beam axis.

      TODO - Make the method consider the general case of coupling between phase planes and return the Twiss parameters as projections that one would observe in experiments.

      Parameters:
      mat - correlation matrix <zzT> in MKS units
      Returns:
      array of Twiss with length 3 where
      array[0] = Twiss parameters in x plane
      array[1] = Twiss parameters in y plane
      array[2] = Twiss parameters in z plane
