 Solution

At fixed gradient and magnet length, $f\propto p$. If $E$ is total energy,Here ${\beta }_0=v_0/c$, not one of the Courant-Snyder parameters. For ultrarelativistic electrons this becomes $f\simeq f_0(1+\delta )$, or $1/f\simeq (1-\delta )/f_0$: higher-energy particles are bent and focused less strongly. If the symbol $E$ instead denotes kinetic energy $K$, the coefficient is $(K+m{c}^2)/(K+2m{c}^2)$, approaching $1/2$ in the nonrelativistic limit. Stating the energy convention avoids applying the ultrarelativistic result to a slow beam.
