Single-Electron Detection and Spectroscopy via Relativistic Cyclotron Radiation.
It has been understood since 1897 that accelerating charges must emit electromagnetic radiation. Although first derived in 1904, cyclotron radiation from a single electron orbiting in a magnetic field has never been observed directly. We demonstrate single-electron detection in a novel radio-frequency spectrometer. The relativistic shift in the cyclotron frequency permits a precise electron ene...
متن کاملViewpoint Cyclotron Radiation from One Electron
Noli turbare circulos meos—do not disturb my circles—was the final wish of Archimedes, who demanded that Roman soldiers not destroy the perfect circular forms he had drawn on the ground. The literal opposite is true for a team of researchers who have designed a new way to accurately measure the tiny shifts in an electron’s circular orbit as the particle moves in a magnetic field. The experiment...
متن کاملCyclotron and Synchrotron Radiation
Ask class: what does this mean about the total speed? Constant, of course. Ask class: how does the speed along the magnetic field change? It doesn’t, because the acceleration is all perpendicular to magnetic field. Since the total speed is constant and the speed along the field is constant, this implies circular motion around the field, combined with (possibly) a uniform drift along the field. ...
متن کاملThe electron cyclotron maser
The electron cyclotron maser (ECM) is based on a stimulated cyclotron emission process involving energetic electrons in gyrational motion. It constitutes a cornerstone of relativistic electronics, a discipline that has emerged from our understanding and utilization of relativistic effects for the generation of coherent radiation from free electrons. Over a span of four decades, the ECM has unde...
متن کاملElectron Cyclotron Resonances in Electron Cloud Dynamics *
We report a previously unknown resonance for electron cloud dynamics. The 2D simulation code “POSINST” was used to study the electron cloud buildup at different z positions in the International Linear Collider positron damping ring wiggler. An electron equilibrium density enhancement of up to a factor of 3 was found at magnetic field values for which the bunch frequency is an integral multiple ...
