Abstract
A simple method to evaluate the RMS beam emittance is described. We ob tained a relation between the beam parameters and the RMS width of the profile which can be measured by a beam profile monitor and this rela tion was used to determine the RMS beam emittance. This method is appl icable to beams with any kind of density distribution in the phase spa ce.
