NSLS-II Seminar

"Global Optimization of a Magnetic Lattice Using Genetic Algorithms"

Presented by Dr. Lingyun Yang

Thursday, April 9, 2009, 1:00 pm — NSLS-II Seminar Room, Bldg. 817

Genetic Algorithms have been used in real-life scientific and engineering problems including accelerator physics. We explore the use of the Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) to locate globally optimized lattice settings. This enhances our ability to design or optimize several quantities simultaneously, e.g. emittance, brightness, twiss parameters in specific location, and in a robust way. We will introduce the MOGA algorithm and show its capabilities for optimization of the ALS lattice.
