8 years ago Hello Yajun,
Yes, it is indeed easy to calculate spectral flux from a tapered undulator using SRW under Igor Pro (srw_igor). One has to specify undulator type as “tapered” in a drop-down box and define a taper parameter (Nu*dE/E) in the dialog accessible from Igor menu: SRWE->Undulator->Periodic Magnetic Field->Create and Modify… as illustrated in the attached graphic file. Then the spectral flux can be calculated the same way as for a non-tapered undulator, i.e. by: SRWE->Undulator->Compute Stokes…
Unfortunately, this was not yet ported to the Python version of SRW (as of Feb. 2016).
However, both in Igor and in Python versions, it is possible to define “arbitrary” tabulated magnetic field (e.g. the one of a tapered undulator), and calculate either single-electron spectral flux per unit surface, or a “multi-electron” one (using the “macro-particle” method). In “srw_igor”, this latter calculation can be done using “proc SrwIntArbMCCreate” (which can be found in “SRW Radiation StokesArb.ipf” file). In “srw_python”, this can be done with “def srwl_wfr_emit_prop_multi_e” function (which is defined in “srwlib.py” file); it can run in “parallel” mode (via MPI/mpi4py).

It is easy to simulate tapered undulator in the srw_igor is there a similar function in srw_python?
