Abstract :
The AGS to RHIC (AtR) beam transfer line has been constructed and will be used to transfer beam bunches from the AGS machine into the RHIC machine which is presently under construction at BNL. The original design of the AtR line has been modified. This article presents the optics of the various sections of the existing AtR beam line, as well as the matching capabilities of the AtR line to the RHIC machine
