A 52 quadrupole-magnet FODO lattice has been assembled and operated at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. The purpose of this lattice is to provide a platform to measure the resulting beam halo as the first few magnets of the lattice produce various mismatch conditions. These data are then compared with particle simulation so that halo formation mechanisms may be better understood. The lattice is appended to the LEDA 6.7-MeV radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) and is followed by a short high-energy beam transport (HEBT) that safely dumps the beam into a 670-kW beam stop.
