AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a user seeking assistance with MADX, specifically on how to output monitor readings for apparent beam position instead of the actual beam position in the accelerator. The user is attempting to incorporate monitor calibration errors into their analysis, which affect the monitor measurements but not the actual beam position. They are looking for the correct command to achieve this output. The conversation includes suggestions for reaching out to MADX support and mentions other forum members who might have relevant expertise, although responses indicate a general lack of familiarity with MADX among participants.

TL;DR Summary
Monitor beam position vs actual beam position
I am fairly new to MADX and having a little trouble understanding how to output the monitor readings (apparent beam position) rather than the actual beam position at that point in the accelerator.
I am trying to include monitor calibration errors but obviously this has no effect on the actual beam position, only on the monitor measurements, which I can't work out how to output.
Basically I'm asking if anybody knows the command I need to include this.
As a side note, I am not using any corrections in MADX but simply applying certain errors and recording their effects.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
(Let me know if there's anything you'd like me to clarify)

Hello Pphysicist:
I have no background in MAD-X, but I note that they have a support site: MAD-X Support
I have also pinged others in this forum in hopes of finding some specific MAD-X expertise.

Maybe @Vanadium 50 or @mfb can help.
 
Sorry, I don't use MADX. Our BPM is less sophisticated than that.

Dear Peeps I have posted a few questions about programing on this sectio of the PF forum. I want to ask you veterans how you folks learn program in assembly and about computer architecture for the x86 family. In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...
I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
