Under three-dimensional plane geometrical constraints ( X,Y, θ), with two asymmetric achromatic sections, the combined three-section structural FODO-like magnet lattice design is adopted and finely optimized in the SSRF electron-beam transfer lines. The magnet lattice has high flexibility and robustness, and the Courant–Snyder parameters can be easily adjusted within a wide range to meet the requirements of transmission and injection for different operation modes of the linear accelerator, booster synchrotron, and storage ring. In this article, the main parameters of the linear optics design of the SSRF electron-beam transfer lines are described, involving the physical design criteria, the total geometrical layout, the magnet lattice, and the beam Courant–Snyder parameters matching. The studies of the variant beam dynamic simulation program calculations show that the design purpose of the efficient beam transmission and injection will be basically achieved.
