Design of transport lines for uniforming beam distribution with octupoles

The intensity distribution of a typical particle beam is an approximate Gaussian distribution while many applications require the beam to be uniform. Local bright spots on the targets for high-power Gaussian beams create difficult cooling problems and shorten the lifetime of the target. In this pape...
