Abstract

The well-known betatron function parameterization in the beam optical computations provides an emittance independent representation of the properties of a beam transport system. The acceleration effects lead to nonsymplecticity of the transfer matrix. The error analysis of matrix presentation in the different phase spaces has been carried out. The coupling transformations of betatron functions for the studied phase spaces are presented.
