  The MedAustron accelerator complex, which is currently in its final design stage at CERN, is based on the optical principles developed within the Proton Ion Medical Machine study (PIMMS) [bryantpimms]. This paper describes how these principles are practically applied in the layout and optics of the High Energy Beam Transfer line (HEBT) of the MedAustron accelerator facility. Special attention is directed to the optics of the gantry which is designed to fit into the PSI gantry-2 hardware layout, which is foreseen to be copied in collaboration with PSI.
