MATLAB and ACS: Connecting two worlds of accelerator physics — •Sebastian Marsching1, Miriam Fitterer1, Steffen Hillenbrand1, Nicole Hiller1, André Hofmann1, Erhard Huttel2, Marit Klein1, Anke-Susanne Müller1,2, Nigel Smale2, and Kiran Sonnad1 — 1Laboratorium für Applikationen der Synchrotronstrahlung, Universität Karlsruhe (TH) — 2Institut für Synchrotronstrahlung, Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe
In the world of accelerator physics there is a vast amount of different software tools based on different platforms. At ANKA, the synchrotron radiation source at the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, a Java based software system is used to monitor and control the storage ring. While this system is based on ALMA Common Software, a component framework using CORBA and supporting Java, C++ and Python, many simulation tools are based on MATLAB and therefore no direct interoperation is possible.
In order to integrate existing simulation tools with the control and monitoring system, a bridge that mediates between both worlds has been created. Thus simulation tools can use live data from the monitoring system and the control system can use simulation tools to improve automatic adjustment of operation parameters.
This talk provides an insight into the concepts of this bridge approach and how it is used at ANKA to improve the beam quality for beam line users especially in the lowalpha mode providing coherent terahertz radiation.
