- The RFDF element (RF deflector) was upgraded to include the longitudinal
field and to treat standing-wave deflectors. It also now
supports the same modulation and noise features as RFTM110.
- The RFMODE, TRFMODE, FRFMODE, and FTRFMODE now support ramping
of the impedance, which helps to reduce transient effects. This was requested by Y. Chae (ANL)
based on ideas from M. Blaskiewicz (BNL).
- Added ``binless'' mode for RFMODE and TRFMODE, which is much faster than
the histogram-based method for beams with trains of bunches.
- Added distribution-based synchrotron radiation to the CSBEND element. This provides
a more fundamental simulation of quantum excitation, in that accurate photon energy, number,
and angular distributions are used. (Even so, little difference is seen from the previous
model based on guassian distributions.)
- Added the RECORD and SAMPLE_INTERVAL features to TRFMODE, allowing
output of the mode voltage and other data.
- Added the MAX_BINS feature to ZLONGIT and ZTRANSVERSE, to prevent
use of an excessive number of bins.
