Drift compression and final focus for intense heavy ion beams with nonperiodic, time-dependent lattice
In the currently envisioned configurations for heavy ion fusion, it is necessary to longitudinally compress the beam bunches by a large factor after the acceleration phase. Because the space-charge force increases as the beam is compressed, the beam size in the transverse direction will increase in...
