189+ \section {Output Parameters }
190+ Descriptions of output files generated by \vn {touschek_background}.
191+
192+ \subsection {\vn {collimator_profile.out} }
193+ The \vn {.in} files contains a \vn {test_collimator} parameter that is a radius in units meters.
194+ For each element between a location where a Touschek particle is generated and where it is lost,
195+ the program tests if the Touschek particle trajectory exceeds \vn {test_collimator}. If it does,
196+ then the number of particles represented by the Touschek particle is added to running tally kept
197+ at that element.
198+
199+ This data can be used to determine where in the lattice a collimator should be placed so as to capture the most
200+ Touschek particles.

208+ \subsection {\vn {energy_deposited_at_s.out} }
209+ Records the amount of energy deposited by Touschek particles colliding with the physical aperture
210+ at each location.

212+ This data can be used to determine radiation backgrounds.

219+
220+ \subsection {\vn {generation_pipe.out} }
221+ Records the number of Touschek particles generated at each location which are destined
222+ to be lost to colliding with the beampipe, as opposed to those Touschek particles which
223+ are lost due to stopping during deceleration. This distinction is important for energy
224+ recovery linacs.

235+ are lost due to colliding with the beampipe. This distinction is important for energy
236+ recovery linacs.

262+ \subsection {\vn {Npart_total_losses_by_s.out} }
263+ Records the number of Touschek particles lost at each slice, counting
264+ both those particles that stop due to deceleration and those that collide with the
265+ beampipe.

286+ at the momentum aperture for that location.
