Explicit thin-lens solution for an arbitrary four by four uncoupled beam transfer matrix

In the design of beam transport lines, one often meets the problem of constructing a quadrupole lens system that will produce desired transfer matrices in both the horizontal and vertical planes. Nowadays this problem is typically approached with the help of computer routines, but searching for the...
