Abstract
Bunching, acceleration, and transverse focusing of intense ion beams in an undulator linac are considered. Such an accelerator features the absence of an rf field harmonic synchronous with the beam. A 3D equation of motion in the Hamiltonian form is derived in the smooth approximation, and the general conditions for ion beam acceleration and transverse focusing in the undulator linac are formulated. Basic analytical results are compared with the results of numerical simulation of the beam dynamics in the polyharmonic field of an accelerating cavity.
