Explicit symplectic integrator for particle tracking in s-dependent static electric and magnetic fields with curved reference trajectory

We describe a method for symplectic tracking of charged particles through static electric and magnetic fields. The method can be applied to cases where the fields have a dependence on the longitudinal as well as transverse position and where the reference trajectory may have nonzero curvature. Appli...
