Detailed Description

A simple parameterisation of N-Pole outer yoke magnetic field.

Field that roughly approximates the field in a yoke of an n-pole magnet. The field is generated by the linear sum of infinitely long wire current sources along +-z (local) placed at a radius of poleTipRadius according to the order of the magnet. Note, these current sources are placed exactly in between the pole will be for each type of magnet. The field is normalised to the field at the pole tip radius given innerFieldIn.

If a point close (< 6mm) to a pole is queried, the field is capped at the normalised value at the pole tip - assumed to be the highest value.

This field of course does not accurately represent the field in the yoke of a magnet as it neglects the permeability and the geometry, however, it is a 1st order approximation.

Does not own or delete the BDSFieldMag* innerFieldIn argument.
