Two-beam Interference of Long Wavelength Synchrotron Radiation
نویسنده
چکیده
The synchrotron radiation emitted from the NSLS VUV ring is found to contain significant spectral structure at long wavelengths (λ > 0.5mm), suggesting multiple beam interference effects. A predominant pattern occurs as a result of direct radiation interfering with radiation reflected from the curved outer wall of the electron beam dipole chambers. This structure appears for both normal incoherent synchrotron radiation emission and coherent emission, the latter resulting from an instability-driven density modulation within the electron bunch.

متن کاملSingle-mode coherent synchrotron radiation instability
The microwave instability driven by the coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) has been previously studied [G. Stupakov, S. Heifets, Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 5, 054402 (2002)] neglecting effect of the shielding caused by the finite beam pipe aperture. The growth rate of the instability is large and, at low bunch density, is dominated by the long wavelength modes. Such modes may be close to the ...
متن کاملLasers , Free - Electron
Free-electron lasers are radiation sources, based on the coherent emission of synchrotron radiation of relativistic electrons within an undulator or wiggler. The resonant radiation wavelength depends on the electron beam energy and can be tuned over the entire spectrum from micrometer to X-ray radiation. The emission level of free-electron lasers is several orders of magnitude larger than the e...

Associated with the experimental discoveries of Čerenkov radiation and synchrotron radiation, separate theoretical analyses were based on the different physical circumstances of the two phenomena. In recent years, Erber and collaborators have noted in a series of papers5−13 that when a relativistic charged particle traverses a dielectric medium subject to an applied magnetic field the resulting...
متن کاملAssessing noise sources at synchrotron infrared ports
Today, the vast majority of electron storage rings delivering synchrotron radiation for general user operation offer a dedicated infrared port. There is growing interest expressed by various scientific communities to exploit the mid-IR emission in microspectroscopy, as well as the far infrared (also called THz) range for spectroscopy. Compared with a thermal (laboratory-based source), IR synchr...
