Abstract

In this lecture we introduce from basic principles the main concepts of beam focusing and transport in modern accelerators using the beam envelope equation as a convenient mathematical tool. Matching conditions suitable for preserving beam quality are derived from the model for significant beam dynamics regimes. An extension of the model to the case of plasma accelerators is introduced. The understanding of similarities and differences with respect to traditional accelerators is also emphasized.
