edge, respectively.
Edge focusing at the exit face is similar. The transfer matrices are the
same as in Eq. (1.35), except with δ 2 substituted for δ 1 , when the definition
of the entrance and exit angles follow the convention in Figure 1.3.

The transfer matrix for the case with K < 0 can be obtained by swapping the
2-by-2 blocks for the horizontal and vertical planes and replacing K with |K|.
Typically for a quadrupole magnet
|K|L is much less than unity. For
example, in the SPEAR3 storage ring, the typical value of
|K|L for QF
magnets is about 0.45. For the purpose of a rough estimate, the transfer
matrix is often approximated with the thin-lens limit, by taking
|K|L → 0
