Some conditions are deduced and discussed, and general guidelines about the locations of the measurement stations have been obtained to avoid unphysical results. The special case of the multi-Optical Transition Radiation system (m-OTR), made of four measurement stations, in the Extraction Line (EXT) of Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) has been simulated in much detail and compared with measurements. Finally a feasibility study of a multi station system for fast transverse beam size measurement, emittance reconstruction and coupling correction in the Ring to Main Linac (RTML) of International Linear Collider (ILC) Diagnostic sections of the RTML has been discussed in detail.", optnote="WOS:000372318800017", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=2581), last updated on Fri, 15 Apr 2016 14:45:58 +0000", issn="0168-9002", doi="10.1016/j.nima.2016.02.064", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2016.02.064", language="English" }
