Compression of Beam Energy Via Off-Axis Traversal of an RF Cavity,
K.T. McDonald (93kB, Jan. 20, 1997). The paper below by Courant can be
interpreted as casting doubt on whether the `rf wedge' can work. We believe
that Courant's theorem does not apply because the energy increments provided
by an rf cavity cannot be described by a `linear' transformation in Courant's
sense.
