One component of the experimental program at the Brookhaven Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) consists of a class of experiments which will study the acceleration of electrons through micron-size structures which are exposed in coincidence to a 100 GW CO{sub 2} laser beam. These experiments require the development and control of an electron beam with geometric emittances on the order of 10{sup {minus}10} m-rad and intensities on the order of 10{sup 6} electrons. In this paper, we describe the strategies for producing such beams and the effects of high-order aberrations. Particle tracking results are presented for the final-focus system. 9 refs., 6 figs., 2 tabs.
