Calculation of Setting Parameters

The amplitude or the size of raster pattern can be read on scope screen. in the unit of volt. The calculation formula between beam momentum, raster size, and observed raster dimension is:


\begin{displaymath}
I[A] = 0.947 \times d[mm] \times p[GeV/c]
\end{displaymath}

and


\begin{displaymath}
V[volt] = 0.0947 \times d[mm] \times p[GeV/c]
\end{displaymath}

Here, I[A] is the peak-to-peak value of magnet current in the unit of Ampere. d[mm] is raster size in mm. p is beam momentum in GeV/c.
