and at s = S,
V 0 (S) = −SE 0 , K(S) = K 0 + ZeSE 0 ,
p s (S) = p S =
2m (K 0 + ZeSE 0 ).

In order to study the two-plate lens quantitatively, we need to still determine
the transfer matrix of the space between the plates. In this region, a charged
particle experiences uniform acceleration or deceleration without change in
transverse momentum, i.e., a f = a i . However, the position changes in a similar
mechanism to that of a drift, but including the effect of the change of the
kinetic energy. For the region between the electrodes, we have from the x
equation of (4.9), and using p s (s) =

We note that if there is no change in the kinetic energy and thus p S = p 0 , this
matrix agrees with the matrix of a drift with length S. On the other hand, if
the system is accelerating, we have L S < S, while for a decelerating system,
L S > S, reflecting the behavior expected from a simple geometric analysis.
