  Accurate measurement and control of the beam envelope are crucial issues, particularly in high-power accelerator facilities. However, the use of destructive monitors is limited to low-intensity beams. Furthermore, in the case of beam transport between superconducting cavities, these destructive monitors are avoided to prevent the generation of dust particles and outgassing. In the Superconducting RIKEN LINAC, or SRILAC [1], we utilize 8 non-destructive Beam Energy Position Monitors (BEPMs)[2] to measure beam positions and energies. Recently we are developing a method for estimating the beam envelope by combining the quadrupole moments from BEPMs, which consist of four cosine-shape electrodes, with transfer matrix[3]. While this method has been applied to electron and proton beams, it has not been practically demonstrated for heavy ion beams in beta ¿0.1 regions. By combining BEPM simulations, we are making progress toward the reproduction of experimental results, overcoming specific issues associated with low beta. This development will present the possibility of a new method for beam envelope measurement in LEBT and MEBT, especially for hadron beam facilities.
