Abstract :
The transport and matching problem for a low energy transport system is approached from a control theoretical viewpoint. We model the beam dynamics and transport section using the KV envelope equations. To this model we apply the principles of optimal control to formulate techniques which aid in the design of the transport and matching section. The techniques are applied to the example of an H-beam transport and matching system
