N2 - This paper presents beam dynamics studies for the Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT) section of the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) accelerator. The analysis of measurements is based on the PyORBIT linac model. The diagnostics data includes wire scanner profiles, slit-harp and slit-slit transverse emittances, MEBT re-buncher calibration data, and bunch length measurements. The MEBT is a matching section between the RFQ and a Drift Tube Linac (DTL). It is also a place for beam halo scraping which helps to reduce beam loss in downstream linac sections. The linac simulation code was bench-marked against the diagnostics data.
