Abstract :
The Superconducting Super Collider was designed with a very exacting emittance budget. In order to avoid emittance dilution in the transfer of beam from the Low Energy Booster to the Medium Energy Booster, it is helpful to ensure that the transfer line connecting the two machines is tuned as designed. We discuss beam-based techniques for ensuring that the transfer line is tuned as designed, and errors associated with this procedure
