We describe the design of a current-independent matching section which could be used to match a 100-MeV, CW beam from a 7-MeV, 350-Mhz RFQ into a 350-Mhz DTL for the proposed Accelerator Performance Demonstration Facility (APDF). This facility is being proposed to demonstrate the performance of a high-current, CW front-end (up to 40-MeV and including a funnel) which would be applicable for the accelerator production of tritium, accelerator transmutation of waste, and accelerator-based conversion of defense waste programs. A detailed description of the APDF is given in another paper presented at this conference.
