A number of solutions have been proposed and tried for matching the output of an ion source to the input of a RFQ.1-15 One of the most popular solutions uses only tWo solenoids.915 The solenoids may be adjusted easily to provide the required match for a and f3 into the RFQ, but this solution assumes the emittances (phase space area/rt) and the input beam parameters in the two transverse phase planes are equal. HIon sources of the Magnetron and Penning type may have significantly different transverse emittances and matching into the RFQ is then more difficult since, at the input to the RFQ, tl,ie .,same values of ex and f3 are required in the two phase planes together with the same beam size.8 It is shown that by using more than two solenoids and controlling the coupling as well as the focusing it is possible to obtain a solution to the matching problem for unequal initial transverSe emittances. Control of the coupling results in equal transverse emittances at the input to the RFQ and control of the focusing, equal values for both ex and f3 in the two planes. Since to first order the coupling is linear there is no change to the hyper-volume of the four dimensional hyper-ellipsoid and the system could after subsequent linear transformation be 'uncoupled' again. The analysis assumes a space charge neutralised beam, but the effect of s]1ace charge is discussed and the principle for matching should still apply in the presence of linear space charge.
