AB  - We employ the principle of maximum entropy (MENT) to reconstruct 4D transverse phase space from its 2D projections. Emittance devices commonly measure two specific 2D projections, i.e. the horizontal and vertical phase space distributions. We show that: 1) given only these two 2D projections, their product is the analytic MENT solution to the 4D distribution; and 2) additional 2D projections provide information on inter-plane coupling in the MENT reconstruction of the 4D phase space which can be solved numerically. At the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), laser wires in the high energy beam transport (HEBT) enable non-invasive two-slit type transverse phase space measurements. Laser wires play the role of the first slit whereas physical wires downstream of a drift act as the second slit. We reconstruct the 4D phase space in the HEBT using all four horizontal/vertical permutations of the two slits where: 1) the two configurations with parallel slits constitute ordinary 2D phase space measurements in either plane; and 2) the two configurations with perpendicular slits carry coupling information.
