Abstract :
The K500 and K800 cyclotrons at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory must be joined by a beamline which matches the emittance of the K500 to the acceptance of the K800. This paper describes the optical design of that beamline, with particular emphasis on the conceptual design process. Specific optical constraints are given along with the techniques used for meeting them. Beam diagnostics are also discussed. All magnets will be superconducting.
