arXiv:2503.18959v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The VAMOS++ magnetic spectrometer is characterized by a large angular and momentum acceptance and highly non-linear ion optics properties requiring the use of software ion trajectory reconstruction methods to measure the ion magnetic rigidity and the trajectory length between the beam interaction point and the focal plane of the spectrometer. Standard measurements, involving the use of a thin target and a narrow beam spot, allow the assumption of a point-like beam interaction volume for ion trajectory reconstruction. However, this represents a
