8. Sextupole Perturbation
We add a term corresponding to a sextupole:
We transform to the Action-Angle Orbital-Angle Frame: 8 8 8 8

9. 3rd-Order Nonlinear Resonance
Near a nu = l resonance we can focus on:
Integrating over s we obtain the Fourier coefficient: 9 9 9 9

10. Fourier coefficient
Evaluated only at sextupoles, which may add up constructively or destructively.
Super-periodicity of accelerator rings cause the resonances to cancel out naturally. Families of sextupoles are also used to change chromaticity without driving resonances.

18. Slow Extraction All diagrams taken from Marco Pullia thesis Chapter 3.
Adiabatically increasing the sextupole strength deforms the linear circular trajectory into a triangular trajectory surrounded by the separatrix. 18 18 18 18

19. Two Septa to Extraction Line
The ES is thin and delivers a kick to provide a large enough gap that the MS can fully extract.
The phase advance between the two septa determines the rotation of the separatrix. 19 19 19 19

20. Steinbach Diagrams
Steinbach diagrams are useful for determining the uniformity of the spill and the momentum spread of the spill.
Chromaticity relates the particle momenta to the tune. 20 20 20 20

21. Method 1: Move the Tune 21 21 21 21

22. Method 2: Move the Beam 22 22 22 22

23. Method 3: Excite the Beam
Operation experience shows this is the method that provides the most fine-control of the spill uniformity.
Method 4: Change the Sextupoles
This method is not recommended, because the spill is very non-uniform and not all particles may be removed. 23 23 23 23

24. Hardt Condition
The line of unstable particle trajectories should coincide for particles of different momenta.
Hardt Condition relates dispersion, phase-advance, chromaticity, and sextupole strength. 24 24 24 24

25. Septa Locations
The Hardt condition, the rotation of the separatrix, and the aperture constraints determine the septa locations. 25 25 25 25
