Linear Imperfections
Jörg Wenninger

    This lecture gives an overview of the impacts on linear machine optics of machine imperfections due to incorrect field settings and misalignments. The effects of imperfections in dipole, quadrupole, and sextupole magnets are presented, along with beam observables and correction techniques that may be used to restore the nominal machine parameters. The main concepts of orbit correction are discussed in detail, because the principles underlying those techniques can be used for other corrections.
