Abstract

The rules of linear beam dynamics allow the design of beam transport systems with virtually any desired beam characteristics. Whether such characteristics actually can be achieved depends greatly on our ability or lack thereof to control the source and magnitude of perturbations. Only the lowest-order perturbation terms were discussed in [4.1] in the realm of linear, paraxial beam dynamics With the continued sophistication of accelerator design and increased demand on beam quality it becomes more and more important to also consider higher-order magnetic field perturbations as well as kinematic perturbation terms.
