Abstract :
The longitudinal requirements for the AGS to RHIC transfer process requires a precise control of the radius and frequency of the circulating bunches in the AGS just before the bunch extraction from the AGS and subsequent injection into RHIC via the ATR transfer line. In addition the transverse beam parameters in the AGS at the location of the Extraction kicker define the "beam-matching" between the ATR line and RHIC. In this paper we present theoretical and experimental results related to the longitudinal and transverse parameters of the AGS
