1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Computer modelling is widely used in the design of scientific instrumentation for manipulating charged particles, for instance: to evaluate the behaviour of proposed designs, to determine the effects of manufacturing imperfections and to optimise the performance of apparatus. For solenoids, to predict charged particle trajectories, accurate values for the magnetic field through which charged species traverse are required, particularly at the end regions where fringe fields are most prevalent. In this paper, we describe a model that accurately predicts the deflection of an electron beam trajectory in the vicinity of the fringing field of a solenoid. The approach produces accurate beam deflection predictions in the fringe field region as well as in the centre of the solenoid. The model is based on a direct-line-of-action force between charges and is compared against field-based approaches including a commercially available package, with experimental verification (for three distinct cases). The direct-action model is shown to be more accurate than the other models relative to the experimental results obtained.
