 ====== Dispersion Matching Mode ======
-In the dispersion-matching optics, the S800 focal point is achromatic, i.e. the position of the beam in the dispersive direction does not depend on the momentum. As a consequence, the beam is momentum-dispersed on the target area (pivot point) with a dispersion of about 10 cm/%. The main goal of the tuning is to ensure that the position and angle dispersion are cancelled at the focal plane, thus maximizing the resolution at that point. We also want a good image in the object position, which will also contribute to increase the resolution at the focal plane.

-Charge-exchange experiments require typically this optics. In some cases, the beam used is <sup>3</sup>H, which has a rather high rigidity (around 4.8 Tm). This imposes a serious constrain, because the maximum rigidity of the spectrograph is 4 Tm. Thus, in this case, the tuning of the S800 is done with <sup>3</sup>He, produced with a CH2 target.
