Orbit and optics distortion in fixed field alternating gradient muon accelerators

In a linear nonscaling fixed field alternating gradient (FFAG) accelerator, betatron tunes vary over a wide range and a beam has to cross integer and half-integer tunes several times. Although it is plausible to say that integer and half-integer resonances are not harmful if the crossing speed is fa...
