Abstract :
A study has been made of the focusing and guiding properties of a long electrostatic quadrupole structure that has been uniformly twisted about its axis. It is demonstrated that compared to the classical chain of quadrupole triplets, the twisted structure is inherently more strongly focusing and can accept more widely divergent particle beams.
