Injection and Extraction

This paper gives an overview of the beam injection and extraction principles for accelerators. After a brief general introduction, it explains different methods of injecting the beam for hadron and lepton machines. It describes single- and multi-turn hadron injection, charge-exchange H- injection, then betatron and synchrotron injection for leptons. For extraction, it presents single- and multi-turn extraction, as well as resonant extraction methods. Finally, the requirements for linking several accelerators by a transfer line are presented.

Longitudinal Beam Dynamics in Circular Accelerators

This paper gives an introduction of longitudinal beam dynamics for circular accelerators. After briefly discussing some types of circular accelerators, it focuses on particle motion in synchrotrons. It summarizes the equations of motion, discusses phase-space matching during beam transfer, and introduces the Hamiltonian of longitudinal motion.

Longitudinal Beam Dynamics -- Recap

This paper gives a very brief summary of longitudinal beam dynamics for both linear and circular accelerators. After discussing synchronism conditions in linacs, it focuses on particle motion in synchrotrons. It summarizes the equations of motion, discusses phase-space matching during beam transfer, and introduces the Hamiltonian of longitudinal motion.
