Accessible to beginning graduate and upper-division undergraduate students in physics, mathematics, and engineering, this book is based on lectures given at Michigan State University, the online VUBeam program, the U.S. Particle Accelerator School, the CERN Academic Training Programme, and other venues. It begins with essential techniques of production, acceleration, and storage of beams, whenever possible from the historical perspective. It covers transfer maps of single- and multi-pass systems and their properties as well as some advanced topics, including aberration integrals and analysis of resonances.
