Abstract :
A beam line transfer map diagnostic which uses induced betatron oscillations to search for focusing errors and geometric aberrations is described. A grid is produced graphically in normalized phase space coordinates with the beta match quantified from this grid. Application to the SLC (SLAC Linear Collider) electron damping Ring-To-Linac (RTL) transport line is presented.<>
