  We report on the theory of a Luneburg lens for forward-volume magnetostatic spin waves, and verify its operation via micromagnetic modelling. The lens converts a plane wave to a point source (and vice versa) by a designed graded index, realised here by either modulating the thickness or the saturation magnetization in a circular region. We find that the lens enhances the wave amplitude by 5 times at the lens focus, and 47% of the incident energy arrives in the focus region. Furthermore, small deviations in the profile can still result in good focusing, if the lens index is graded smoothly.
