Abstract
The pursuit of physics beyond the Standard Model relies on the ability to make highly sensitive measurements with a high level of precision. Particle accelerators have been a cornerstone for the foundation of tools that have allowed us to continue to probe the limits of what the Standard Model can predict.
This thesis is focused on applying various measurement techniques, some standard and one not so standard, that provide crucial information about beam optics and beam quality for the purposes of monitoring the beam as it is guided throughout a beam transport system. After the measuring techniques have been described, as a proof of concept, this thesis will look to a simulation of the Mu2e extraction line from the Muon Campus at Fermilab to showcase the ability of the measurement methods to fully characterize the beam.
