Emittance sharing and exchange driven by linear betatron coupling in circular accelerators

The influence of linear betatron coupling due to constant-in-time skew quadrupolar fields on the transverse emittances is discussed using both a simplified model of a smooth circular accelerator and a more realistic strong-focusing lattice with localized sources of coupling (thin lens). New formulas...
