(a) Magnetic force lines owing to a focusing dipole magnet which focuses the particle in horizontal plane while defocuses in other plane. (b) Alternative focusing and defocusing quadruple represented using a lens analogy. The net effect is focusing in both directions. QD, horizontally defocusing quadrupole; QF, horizontally focusing quadrupole.
