Abstract :
A possible technique of generation of high-frequency drive beam for a linear collider consists in creating electron bunches in a battery of guns and merging them in a magnetic circuit (switch-yard) at the end of which all the bunches are aligned on a common line with the right spacing. Two types of scheme are discussed. The properties of the structure in terms of orbit dispersion, focusing and bunch lengthening due to finite momentum spread and emittance are analyzed
