  • Abstract
    The CEBAF (Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility) accelerator beam transport system contains 104 sextupoles to correct chromatic aberrations. The layout of these elements is described, and schemes for suppressing chromatic errors are discussed. Analytic results for the required sextupole strengths are given and computations of chromatic aberrations are documented. Numerical results using two correction methods are provided.<>
