abstract = {{The transmission efficiency and beam dynamic parameters of the low-energy beam transfer (LEBT) section of proton accelerators, serving as a neutron spallation source, have a critical impact on beam loss in subsequent sections of the linear accelerator. Due to variations and mismatches, the beam parameters at the entrance of the radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ) change, significantly affecting the transmission efficiency of the RFQ and the matching between RFQ and drift tube linac (DTL) structures. Recognizing the importance of this concept, particle-in-cell studies were conducted to optimize the LEBT section of the ISIS accelerator. This study presents the results of simulations.}},
