Abstract
Magnetized beams beam with significant canonical angular momentum are critical to electron cooling of hadron beams such as contemplated in next-generation hadron and electron-ion colliders. The transport of magnetized electron beams over long distances in a locally non-axisymmetric external field is challenging. An alternative is to transform the beam into an uncoupled "flat beam", transport the produced "flat" beam over a long distance, and reintroduce the cross-plane coupling to "re-magnetize" the beam. In this paper, we demonstrate via numerical simulation and laboratory experiments such a cascaded-transformation approach.
