Description

As part of the Bmad software library, a program called Synrad3d has been written to track synchrotron radiation photons generated in storage rings. The purpose of the program is primarily to estimate the intensity and distribution of photon absorption sites, which are critical inputs to codes which model the growth of electron clouds. Synrad3d includes scattering from the vacuum chamber walls using X-ray data from an LBNL database. Synrad3d can handle any planar lattice and a wide variety of vacuum chamber profiles. A description of the program will be given, together with some examples of results.
