Novel Non-Intercepting Diagnostic Techniques for Low-Emittance Relativistic Electron Beams.

摘要

Relativistic electron beams are being generated with emittances low enough that diffraction radiation can be used for beam diagnostics. Techniques based on diffraction radiation can be used to measure the beam transverse momentum distribution and to measure the transverse spatial distribution. The radiation is intense and can be in the visible spectral region where optical diagnostic techniques can be used to maximum advantage. 4 refs. 3 figs. (ERA citation 14:003391)
