Description

The optimization of high-current high-energy linacs against the low beam loss requirement is not straightforward or well-codified. Outlying particle losses at the 10-5 up to 10-8 level might have only a small effect on the rms properties of the beam, and thus the total beam size must be constantly kept under observation. RMS-physics has gained wide-spread acceptance as a necessary design tool, but its sufficiency is an issue for ATW/ABC accelerators
