The Kapchinskij-Vladimirskij equations are widely used to study the evolution of the beam envelopes in a periodic system of quadrupole focusing cells. In this paper, we analyze the case of a matched beam. Our model is analogous to that used by Courant and Snyder [E. D. Courant and H. S. Snyder, Ann. Phys. (Paris) 3, 1 (1958)ANPHAJ0003-4169], who obtained a first-order approximate solution for a synchrotron. Here, we treat a linear machine and obtain an exact solution. The model uses a full occupancy, piecewise-constant focusing function and neglects space charge. There are solutions in an infinite number of bands as the focus strength is increased. All these bands are stable. Our explicit results for the phase advance σ and the envelopes a(z) and b(z) are exact for all phase advances except multiples of 180°, where the behavior is singular. We find that the peak envelope size is minimized for σ∼81°. Actual operation in the higher bands would require very large, very accurate field strengths and would produce significantly larger envelope excursions. If such operation were found to be feasible, there would be interesting applications which we discuss. |
