The results of all the emittance measurements are discussed in the following<br />

2.4.5 Results<br />

The normalized transverse emittances measured at various locations in the ma-<br />

chine for an injection energy of 56 MeV and 20 MeV are summarized in Table 2.1<br />

and Table 2.2, respectively.<br />

The most striking feature of the measurements is the exceedingly large hori-<br />

zontal and vertical emittance in arc 2 for the 56 MeV injector configuration. While<br />

transverse coupling can cause the projected emittances of one plane to increase at<br />

the expense of the other, the fact that both transverse planes grew by such a large<br />

amount suggests a faulty measurement, rather than a real physical process.<br />

During this particular measurement several tens of centimeters of remnant dis-<br />

persion were observed in arc 2. The source of the dispersion was never clearly<br />
