Linear and nonlinear beam dynamics of vertical fixed-field accelerators

Vertical fixed-field accelerators (vFFAs) feature a magnetic field that increases exponentially in the vertical direction, resulting in vertically stacked nonplanar orbits. Their magnetic field is highly nonlinear, and their solenoid and quadrupolar components induce strongly coupled optics. The det...
