An En­ergy Re­cov­ery Ex­per­i­ment at CEBAF (ER@​CEBAF) is aimed at demon­strat­ing high en­ergy, low cur­rent, multi-pass en­ergy re­cov­ery at the ex­ist­ing 12 GeV CEBAF ac­cel­er­a­tor. The beam break-up in­sta­bil­ity, lim­it­ing the max­i­mum beam cur­rent, can be con­trolled through min­i­miz­ing beta func­tions for the low­est en­ergy pass, which gives a pref­er­ence to strongly fo­cus­ing op­tics, e.g. a semi-pe­ri­odic FODO lat­tice. On the other hand, one needs to limit beta func­tion ex­cur­sions, caused by under fo­cus­ing, at the higher en­ergy passes, which in turn fa­vors weakly fo­cus­ing linac op­tics. Bal­anc­ing both ef­fects is the main ob­jec­tive of pro­posed multi-pass linac op­tics op­ti­miza­tion. Here, we dis­cuss an op­tics de­sign process for ER@​CEBAF trans­verse op­tics using a ge­netic al­go­rithm.
