Code mostly completed. I now need an example combining taper and makethin, and including octupoles and multipoles, to check that all is working fine. I have already inserted zero-strength octupoles and multipoles in an FCC lattice to check that taper is properly calculated. I would like to further test the usage of taper for octupoles and multipoles.
Sent an email to Helmut Burkhardt to request a test case.
@fscarlier proposed also to change the name 'ktap' in 'ftap' to avoid implying that ktap is in unit of m^-n, while it is unit less.
For me the proposal is fine, if the users of the existing users for tapering agree (@tpersson, @ghislain-roy please comment!)
I don’t think there can be confusion about ktap when it is properly documented in the manual and a name starting with k does not imply that it is a strength but if anything that it is related to a strength.
And in the proposed ftap, what is the f standing for ?
f for factor I believe
