*Verified "quiet" beam for magnetized beam matched to a solenoid; beam distribution follows the field lines in both straight and bent solenoids, and does not rotate in transverse plane for uniform longitudinal magnetic field. Analyzing beam distributions at entrance and exit of bent solenoid while mostly ignoring motion inside bent solenoid section for low energy beam. Nonzero transverse fields result in "cusp" motion in the plane of the bend as seen in other bent solenoid simulations.

I've been looking over diagnostic issues that might be useful, like SR viewers for the 2T06 common dipole and mirror damage issues for the CEBAF accelerator diagnostics.  The whole topic of optical BPMs seems like something we should be able to exploit for low-current applications.  Direct X-ray imaging is another potentially fascinating way to obtain significant improvement in resolution with SR in CEBAF.
