V. H. Ranjbar † Received 4 September 2007; published 4 March 2008 We will explore a method for measuring chromaticity by continuously kicking the beam transversely. This is called the continuous head-tail method for measuring chromaticity. The complete analytic approximation in terms of trigonometric functions is derived for zero transverse emittance beam. A simple formula for calculating chromaticity from experimental data is also shown. Finally, the theory is compared with experimental data. ©2008 The American Physical Society
