Title :
Beam profile data analysis for the RHIC injection line

Abstract :
Beam profile monitors employing phosphor screens will be used in the beam transfer line from AGS to RHIC, now under construction at BNL, as beam profile monitors. Data analysis procedures are being developed for the transfer line test scheduled for the fall of 1995. In addition to the emittance and Twiss parameters calculation, it will include direct reconstruction of the beam phase space density distribution by using an Abel inversion with the minimal assumption of an elliptically symmetric phase space distribution. The percent emittance comes out of the process naturally
