Design of Terahertz-Wave Spectrophotometry by Compton Backscattering Using Relativistic Electron Bunches and their Coherent Synchrotron Radiations

摘要

We propose a new terahertz-wave spectrophotometry by Compton backscattering using relativistic electron bunches and coherent radiations generated by them. The terahertz-wave spectrophotometry can be realized simultaneously with Compton backscattering, where the characteristics in the terahertz-wave region are converted to those in the visible and ultraviolet regions. The number of Compton backscattered photons is estimated to be more than 100 counts per second with a wavelength divergence of 5% in the visible and ultraviolet regions using the compact S-band linac at National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology. This spectrophotometry becomes significant in energy recovery linacs.
