I think this way will not work ... I would have to add the element after every mean free path :/ I understand now the cord array. What is the element containing the particle coordinates which is handed over to the next element? cord as well? Just as a example - to reduce the transversal momentum xp ...

The manual says a diagnostic element gives a certain infomation at a given position. How do I then define a certain length - a ?(gas) diag which is valid over the full length of the fieldmap? Can you explain a little more the cord array - the manual only says see example... I guess it contains the 6...

Thanks for the Answer!
By tw notice you refer to the tracewin.pdf manual?

If I create an element - is it still possible to overlay with a fieldmap?
Would it be possible to share the code of the existing Gas element to have a better understanding of how the implementation works...

Dear all, I am trying to simulate a combination of an RF field map with a background gas used for buffer cooling. Details on that to be found here https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168900201002868 I turned on gas scattering. The interaction with the low energy beam (approx 100eV) s...
