The stability of the linearized Kapchinskij-Vladimirskij (KV) equations around a matched solution, which constitute a linear periodic Hamiltonian system, is studied. By using Floquet theorem, symplectic algebra and the eigenvalue distribution theory, a critical stability condition for the linearized particle beam envelope equations is obtained. The stability conditions are expressed in terms of the time-averaged Hamiltonian system.
