Abstract
The field quality of magnets can be improved by optimizing the shape of the pole. One often uses circular profiles in quadrupoles and sextupoles where the radius of the circle is optimized for minimizing the dominant error ha rmonics. A new method of calculating the harmonic coefficients by using Tay lor's series expansion technique has been adopted. It has been applied for optimizing the radii of the circular pole profiles in quadrupoles, sextupol es anti octupoles.
