Abstract

The transfer line from the Linac to the Low Energy Ring (LER) for the latest layout of the SuperB project is a critical part of the injector. It must implement a total of 149_ small-radius bending in the horizontal plane, a vertical dogleg and a final vertical angle to match the tilt of the LER. Details of the design are explained in this note together with the beam dynamics studies and the estimation of the maximum acceptable energy error for an efficient injection.
