Simple lumped circuit model applied to field flatness tuning of four-rod radio frequency quadrupoles

The field flatness of any radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) is an important parameter that needs to be carefully tuned because it can affect beam transmission efficiency. In four-rod RFQs, the heights of a set of tuning plates determine the quality of the field flatness. The goals of this paper are (...
