Talk Page convention[edit]

Hi ElectronsNStuff - thanks for adding new material to the page on Beam emittance! Two things:

1. It's convention to add new sections to the BOTTOM of talk pages, not the top. For a backwater page like this one, it's not a big deal, but for busier pages, this allows old threads to be archived easily. Plus, it just makes it easier to find new materials.

2. I'm not aware of the quadrupole scan being used to measure longitudinal emittance, so I took that bit out, but I'm curious if you've seen it used in that regard? Typically longitudinal emittance is measured by more dispersive elements like dipoles, to my knowledge.

Cool! My bad, still new to wiki edits. I'm actually uploading as part of edit-a-thon for a meeting my research center is holding. That fact about longitudinal emittance was contributed by someone else. Let me ask where they understood it from. I also am not familiar with how it can be used that way.

Yeah, they just included longitudinal space out of habit while listing off planes. ElectronsNStuff (talk) 18:57, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
