A computer code has been developed to reconstruct the 4-D transverse phase-space distribution of an accelerator beam from a set of linear profiles measured at different angles at three or more stations along the beam line. The code was applied to wire-scan data obtained on the low-intensity H/sup -/ beam of the LAMPF accelerator. A 4-D reconstruction was obtained from 10 wire-scan profiles; 2-D projections of the reconstruction agree fairly well with slit-and-collector measurements of the horizontal and vertical emittance distributions.
