Dipole Magnets consists of four basic sections: uniform bending magnets, nonuniform bends, fringe fields, and the Kerst-Serber equation. The unique hypertext environment provides a variety of avenues for working through the program. You can move in a linear fashion, building your understanding, or you can jump from one area to another, according to your interests.
