           SUMMARY OF THE CALCULATIONS AND CONVENTIONS USED


Field Expansion:
The expansion of the radial and azimuthal field in polar
coordinates is
 Br(r,th) = Sum Bn (r/rref)^(n-1) cos(n(th-thspole))
 Bth(r,th) = -Sum Bn (r/rref)^(n-1) sin(n(th-thspole))
Our convention is to set rref = Rcoil.
Thspole is the angle of the first magnetic south pole
with respect to the horizontal, measured ccw by a shaft
encoder in the system.

Coil Voltage:
The coil voltage from each field harmonic is
 Vn(th) = Nturns * velocity * Brn(Rcoil,th) * L
L is the magnet effective length, or BLn is the integrated
field strength of the n'th harmonic.
At the coil radius, the radial field as a function of angle is,
 Brn(Rcoil,th) * L = BLn * cos(n*(th - thspole))
The coil voltage is
 Vn(th) = Nturns * velocity * BLn * cos(n*(th - thspole))
        = Nturns * Rcoil * ang_freq * BLn * cos(n*(th - THspole))
An FFT of the coil voltage gives Vn and PhiVn according to the formula
 Vn(i) = Vn * cos(n*2pi*i/N + PhiVn)

Multipole Field Calculations:
To find the multipole field magnitudes and phases,
the measured voltage harmonics are related to their values
calculated from the field harmonics:
 Nturns * Rcoil * ang_freq * BLn = Vn
 -n * thspole = PhiVn
Or,
 BLn = Vn / (Nturns * Rcoil * ang_freq)
 thspole = -PhiVn / n

Harmonic Strength Ratios:
The main field, denoted by capital N, is the field harmonic
with the largest strength at the coil radius.
The field strength ratio is defined by
 Rn = BLn / BLN
It gives the ratio of each harmonic field strength to the
main field strength at the coil radius.

Calculation Of SL:
The sextupole strength S is defined by the vertical
field on the x-axis (median plane).
It is the quadratic term in the Taylor expansion.
 By(x) = 1/2 S x^2
On the x-axis, By(x) = Bth(r=x,th=0)
From the expression for Bth above,
 By(x) = - B3 (x/rref)^2 sin(-3 thspole)
Take rref = Rcoil, thspole = pi/6, then at x=Rcoil,
 By(Rcoil) = B3 = 1/2 S Rcoil^2
So,
 S = 2 B3 / Rcoil^2
The integrated sextupole strength is
 SL = 2 BL3 / Rcoil^2

Calculation Of The Sextupole Center:
In the sextupole's frame,
 Bx' = S * x' * y'
 By' = 1/2 * S * (x'^2 - y'^2).
In the coil's frame (unprimed frame) the magnetic center is at (x0, y0).
In the coil's frame,
 Bx = S * (x - x0) * (y - y0)
 By = 1/2 * S * [(x - x0)^2 - (y - y0)^2].
The magnetic center can be found in terms of the measured
quadrupole field.  Compare Br and Btheta on the x-axis to
 Bxquad = -S * (x0 * y + y0 * x)
 Byquad = -S * (x0 * x - y0 * y).
Evaluate at x = Rcoil, y = 0 and compare to
 Br(theta = 0) = Bx, Btheta(theta = 0) = By.
In terms of the measured integrated strengths, this gives
 Xcenter = x0 = - (1/(SL * Rcoil)) * BL2 * sin(2 * THspole2)
 Ycenter = y0 = - (1/(SL * Rcoil)) * BL2 * cos(2 * THspole2)
