Longitudinal Phase-space and Transverse Slice Emittance Measurements of High-brightness Electron Beams
نویسندگان
چکیده
In order to measure the longitudinal phase-space profile of the electron beam, we are developing a compact measurement system consisting of a Cherenkov radiator, a bending magnet and a streak camera. The Cherenkov radiator with an aerogel is installed in the beam transport line, and the electron distribution in the longitudinal phase-space is obtained. Furthermore, a slice emittance measurement system with the same method is proposed.

Space-charge effects in high brightness electron beam emittance measurements
The measurement of emittance in space-charge dominated, high brightness beam systems is investigated from conceptual, computational, and experimental viewpoints. As the self-field-induced collective motion in the low energy, high brightness beams emitted from photoinjector rf guns are more important in determining the macroscopic beam evolution than thermal spreads in transverse velocity; tradi...
متن کاملSlice Emittance Measurements at the SLAC Gun Test Facility*
A goal of the Gun Test Facility (GTF) at SLAC is to investigate the production of highbrightness electron beams for the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-ray FEL. High brightness in the rf photocathode gun occurs when the time-sliced emittance is nearly the same as the cathode thermal emittance and when the slices are all lined up, i.e., their Twiss parameters are nearly identical. In collab...
متن کاملLimiting Effects in the Transverse-to-longitudinal Emittance Exchange Technique for Low Energy Relativistic Electron Beams
Transverse to longitudinal phase space manipulation hold great promises, e.g., as a potential technique for repartitioning the emittances of a beam. A proof-of-principle experiment to demonstrate the exchange of a low longitudinal emittance with a larger transverse emittance is in preparation at the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator using a ∼ 12 MeV electron beam. In this paper we explore the limit...
متن کاملGeneration of Ellipsoidal Beam through 3d Pulse Shaping for a Photoinjector Drive Laser*
In this paper we present a 3D laser pulse shaping scheme that can be applied for generating ellipsoidal electron bunches from a photoinjector. The 3D shaping is realized through laser phase tailoring in combination with chromatic aberration in a focusing optics. Performance of an electron beam generated from such shaped laser pulses is compared with that of a uniforma ellipsoidal, a uniform cyl...
