Abstract :
The beam delivered to a circular machine from a beamline must be matched to the machine lattice function in order to avoid emittance dilution. One method of matching is to rely on beam profile measurements at a number of points in the beamline. In this paper we discuss the expected errors associated with various placement options for beam profile monitors. Examples are given from the Low Energy Booster (LEB) to Medium Energy Booster (MEB) transfer line at the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC)
