  • Abstract
    The Spallation Neutron Source Linac consists of a few distinct sections which require careful transverse matching. Robust techniques for transversely matching various sections of the SNS Linac have been identified and presented. These techniques do not require us any knowledge of machine optics, and are robust against up to 20% measurement uncertainties, beam mismatch, etc.
