How can I pass the deviation like misalignment to the AT? about at HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi,
Do you use the Matlab version of AT or the new (under development?) python version (pyAT)?

If Matlab:
The (in my opinion) best way to make a closed orbit distortion is by taking a corrector in the lattice (using atcorrector to create the element), and then applying some kick. This is done by inserting some kick-angle in the .KickAngle field of the corrector element.
A more advanced method would be to shift one of the quadrupole elements (using atshiftelem).

Hello,
PolynomA and PolynomB fields are ignored by the pass method QuadLinearPass. You should use StrMPoleSymplectic4Pass.

Jonas, you can add the field KickAngle to dipoles and multipoles too, you don't need to add a thin corrector element.

Thanks a lot, Mr. Kallestrup and Mr. Carmignani!

My environment is pyAT. A senior in my lab told me that directly changing the PolynomA and PolynomB fields seem to work in Matlab AT， instead of changing the K value of dipole or quadrupole.
