Envelope model for passive magnetic focusing of an intense proton or ion beam propagating through thin foils
Ion beams (including protons) with low emittance and high space-charge intensity can be propagated with normal incidence through a sequence of thin metallic foils separated by vacuum gaps of order the characteristic transverse beam extent to transport/collimate the beam or to focus it to a small tra...
