This is the home page of the lattice descriptions of the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) facility. The lattice descriptions are expressed in the Methodical Accelerator Design (MAD) language (version 8).

As of April 24, 2019 the lattice descriptions described on this page include the entire LCLS facility: normal conducting (NC) and superconducting (SC) accelerator systems . This page supersedes both the original LCLS Lattice Description site and the LCLS-II Lattice Description site.

Lattice Output Files

The output results of "official" MAD runs are in timestamped directories under /afs/slac/www/grp/ad/model/output/lcls/mad. The latest output is always in /afs/slac/www/grp/ad/model/output/lcls/mad/latest

Databases

Modelled element and device data are available in SLAC's Oracle Database. See the Elements and Symbols tabs (they contain largely the same information).

Optics Plots

These are the Twiss parameter plots for each beampath. Click on an image for the set of plots for that beampath.

SC linac systems:

GUNB to SXR dump
GUNB to HXR dump
GUNB to BSY dump
GUNB through DIAG0
GUNB to DASEL

NC linac systems:

GUN to HXR dump
GUN to SXR dump
GUN to A-line

Beampaths

The following are descriptions of the defined electron beam paths of the LCLS facility. These include both the paths for the superconducting accelerating system (those originating at GUNB) and the original normal conducting copper accelerating system (those originating at GUN). See the dat files in the column "Elements / devices file" for complete table of the device names and their corresponding MAD element, together with their Z and the area of the machine in which each element is situated, per the Beamline Boundaries PRD, see Tables 1 and 3, and the map in Appendix A. Each element is in exactly 1 such area.

Beampath Table: Primary RF refers to the technology used for the radio frequency accelerating structures of the beamline; "SC" = 1.3 GHz CW superconducting, "NC" = 2856 MHz pulsed normal conducting. Status refers to the administrative standing of the beampath. MAD8 filename prefix refers to the filenames of the MAD8 output relating to the beampath. The Beampath ID is the unique tag of the beampath, as defined by the Beamline Boundaries PRD (and is understood by the "lname" directive of the MEME directory service). The maps are zoomable PDF; middle-click to download. Open with, for instance, Adobe Reader (zoom in with, for instance, View ↳Zoom ↳ Pan and Zoom). The maps show the all modelled elements of the LCLS MAD8 decks, including devices (where the element has one), markers etc, with their suml and Z positions, arranged left to right by Z and hierarchically by modelled line. Arrows link the elements to show the path of the beam from element to element through the machine.

The mapping from elements to EPICS PV names (or at least the device name part of PV names) is defined by the file elementdevices.dat, which is itself generated from the LCLS_INFRASTRUCTURE database in SLAC Oracle. These lines files and maps were created using an awk script mad2dot.awk. mad2dot takes as input the print and survey files as output from MAD8 (see header of mad2dot), plus one or more "elementdevices" files. mad2dot creates a "lines" file for each beampath (for consumption by the directory service, so on-line apps know the device-line hierarchy), and a dot file, for instance LCLS2scH.dot, for each beampath. We then use the unix command dot, or Graphviz, to create a PDF from the dot file.

Publication Guide

For those people who need to change the lattice files, there is a README in CVS, in the same directory as the lattice files. That README describes how to do the CVS, and use a makefile to publish the output files to /afs/slac/www/grp/ad/model/output/.
