Title of Dissertation : LONGITUDINAL DYNAMICS OF AN INTENSE ELECTRON BEAM

Title of Dissertation: LONGITUDINAL DYNAMICS OF AN INTENSE ELECTRON BEAM John Richardson Harris, Ph.D., 2005 Dissertation Directed By: Professor Patrick G. O'Shea, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering The dynamics of charged particle beams are governed by the particles' thermal velocities, external focusing forces, and Coulomb forces. Beams in which Coulomb forces play the dominant...

Beam-Induced Multipactoring and Electron-Cloud Effects in Particle Accelerators

High-energy particle accelerators produce intense charged particle beams, e.g. of electrons or protons, at multi-GeV or multi-TeV energies, either shooting a single such beam against a fixed target or colliding two beams, in order to produce new particles and to study the scattering events in the search for the fundamental laws of physics. In the beam pipe of these accelerators an “electron clo...

Backscattering of an intense laser beam by an electron.

We present a novel, simple asymptotic expansion for the spectrum of radiation that is backscattered from a laser by a counterpropagating (or copropagating) electron. The solutions are presented in such a way that they explicitly show the relative merit of using an intense laser and of an energetic electron beam in x-ray production in the single particle regime. Simple scaling laws are given.

Observation of Electron Trapping in an Intense Laser Beam

180 LLE Review, Volume 79 Since the discovery of the ponderomotive force over 40 years ago, it has been known that charged particles interacting with an oscillating electromagnetic field will seek regions of low intensity.1 It was immediately proposed that with the appropriate field distribution, particles could be trapped with this force.2 The case of electron confinement with a specially shap...
