Simulations of the effects of insertion devices on beam dynamics are necessary to design and run a synchrotron. To that end, different approaches and codes are used. In some cases the results of the different codes and the measurements don’t agree very well. Limitations of different simulation software—namely elegant, AT, Opera3D—are discussed and edge cases are presented in this talk. The edge cases were investigated by comparing multiple simulation approaches and codes among themselves. In addition experimental data is acquired and taken as a reference to compare against the models. These experiments were performed with a superconducting wiggler with known magnetic field component at the ANKA synchrotron light source.
