User's guide to ESME v. 7. 1
Abstract
ESME is a computer program to calculate the evolution of a distribution of particles in energy and azimuth as it is acted upon by the radiofrequency system of a proton synchrotron. It provides for the modeling of multiple rf systems, feedback control, spacecharge, and many of the effects of longitudinal coupling impedance. The capabilities of the program are described, and the requirements for input data are specified in sufficient detail to permit significant calculations by an uninitiated user. The program is currently at version 7.1 and extensively modified since the previous user documentation. Fundamental enhancements make version 6 data unusable, but nearly all facilities of the earlier version have been retained and input data is similar. Also described is a VAX-based code management convention which has been established with a view to maintaining functional equivalence in versions used on different computers. 13 refs.
