Abstract

The purpose of the newly constructed 8 GeV transfer line is to provide a reliable interconnection of the Booster and the Main Injector. This transfer line is constructed from the combination of the permanent and electro-magnets. We present data obtained during the commissioning along with our experience of combined function permanent magnets, DC operation of the electro-magnets and optics model vs. measurement of the beamline is also presented
