Assuming a 0.06 ◦ RF crest phasing error and adding this contribution to to the<br />

expected relative energy spread in arc 2 yields a value of 0.02 × 10 −3 which agrees<br />

with the measured data.<br />

The 56 MeV case can be analyzed in much the same manner. It turns out,<br />

however, that the relative energy spread measured in arc 1 is much less than the<br />

expected value (0.033 × 10 −3 ). Because this expected value is based on a perfectly<br />

phased linac, there are no mechanisms which can account for the discrepancy and<br />

this may represent a poor data point. The expected energy spread in arc 2 can be<br />

calculated with<br />
