In the past two years accelerator builders have published papers describing mature designs of no fewer than 7 new high-performance proton linacs. These machines are typically designed to deliver multi-megawatt beams for applications in pure and applied research. All of these machines use the radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ) linac for the first stage of acceleration to reach an energy of a few MeV. In essentially all cases, superconducting elliptical cavities have been adopted as the technology of choice for acceleration above ~100 MeV. Between the RFQ and the high-energy elliptical cavities, designers have proposed no fewer than 6 different types of accelerating structures. In many cases these structures are reaching maturity as a result of active development programs. In this paper, we review the design architectures of the ?low and medium energy? portions of these machines emphasizing recent experience and developments applicable to high-current linac designs.

Transverse matching for a high intensity linac was proposed based on minimizing rms emittances. A MATLAB routine was developed and applied during the SNS linac commissioning. The result was also compared with the simulations.
