Resolution and systematic limitations in beam-based alignment
Beam-based alignment of quadrupoles by variation of quadrupole strength is a widely used technique in accelerators today. We describe the dominant systematic limitation of such algorithms, which arises from the change in the center position of the quadrupole as the strength is varied, and derive exp...
