In this series of eight papers we present the applications of methods from wavelet analysis to polynomial approximations for a number of accelerator physics problems. In this paper we consider invariant formulation of nonlinear (Lagrangian or Hamiltonian) dynamics on semidirect structure (relativity or dynamical groups) and corresponding invariant calculations via CWT.
To a very good approximation, particularly for hadron machines, charged-particle trajectories in accelerators obey Hamiltonian mechanics. During routine storage times of eight hours or more, such particles execute some $10^{8}$ revolutions about the machine, $10^{10}$ oscillations about the design orbit, and $10^{13}$ passages through various bending and focusing elements. Prior to building, or modifying, such a machine, we seek to identify accurately the long-term behavior and stability of particle orbits over such large numbers of interactions. This demanding computational effort does not yi…
This paper presents a novel approach for constructing neural networks which model charged particle beam dynamics. In our approach, the Taylor maps arising in the representation of dynamics are mapped onto the weights of a polynomial neural network. The resulting network approximates the dynamical system with perfect accuracy prior to training and provides a possibility to tune the network weights on additional experimental data. We propose a symplectic regularization approach for such polynomial neural networks that always restricts the trained model to Hamiltonian systems and significantly im…
In this paper we present a method of constructing a nonlinear accelerator lattice that has an approximate integral of motion that is given upfront. The integral under consideration is a Hamiltonian in normalized (canonical) coordinates that is preserved by a lattice with a given accuracy. We establish a connection between the integrator of a Hamiltonian in normalized coordinates and a real lens arrangement. We apply known algorithms of high-order symplectic integrators, to produce several nonlinear lattices and show that this approach could improve the design of the nonlinear insert considered…
Symplectic maps are routinely used to describe single-particle dynamics in circular accelerators. In the case of a linear accelerator map, the rotation number (the betatron frequency) can be easily calculated from the map itself. In the case of a nonlinear map, the rotation number is normally obtained numerically, by iterating the map for given initial conditions, or through a normal form analysis, a type of a perturbation theory for maps. Integrable maps, a subclass of symplectic maps, allow for an analytic evaluation of their rotation numbers. In this paper we propose an analytic expression …
A numerical method to design nonlinear double- and multi-bend achromat (DBA and MBA) lattices with approximate invariants of motion is investigated. The search for such nonlinear lattices is motivated by Fermilab's Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA), whose design is based on an integrable Hamiltonian system with two invariants of motion. While it may not be possible to design an achromatic lattice for a dedicated synchrotron light source storage ring with one or more exact invariants of motion, it is possible to tune the sextupoles and octupoles in existing DBA and MBA lattices to produ…
