MODELLING OF A SHORT-PERIOD SUPERCONDUCTING UNDULATOR

STFC, in collaboration with Diamond Light Source, are designing and building a 15.5 mm period, 1.26 T superconducting undulator. This paper describes the modelling of the undulator, using Radia and Opera. Extensive numerical modelling has been carried out to simulate the effect of manufacturing tolerances on the quality of the magnetic field, in order to meet the demanding overall 3° rms phase error specification.
