In studying dynamic aperture in the storage rings, it is becoming increasing beneficial to understand the growth of the fractal boundary of the dynamic aperture without tracking for millions of turns in a hadron ring. This note describes the J. Gao theory applied to the Electron Ion Collider (EIC) Hadron Storage Ring (HSR) and compares simulation results to theoretical predictions to show that the analytical method may prove useful in quick determinations of improved dynamic aperture based on sextupole and octupole configurations.
