Abstract :
The optics for the 350 m long proton beam transport system from PETRA to HERA is presented. The special geometry of the beam line, involving both horizontal and vertical deflections, leads to a coupling of horizontal and vertical emittances. A simple compensation scheme using skew quadrupoles is proposed. The requirements for the magnets with respect to apertures, tolerances and flexibility (for matching various optics of PETRA and HERA) are discussed. An estimate for the emittance growth due to focussing errors in the beam line is given.
