Abstract |
The diagnosis of the temporal profile and length of high brightness electron beams is very important in advanced accelerator facilities and next generation light sources. A novel diagnostic scheme to reach temporal resolutions exceeding 1 femtosecond has been studied recently (1). The scheme entails imposing an angular modulation on the electron beam by interaction with a high power laser in an undulator field. A subsequent deflection in the orthogonal dimension, provided by an RF cavity, generates a streak on a downstream screen. The observable pattern is now correlated to the beam longitudinal profile. In this paper, we present a test case for this scheme using the parameters of the Brookhaven National Laboratory Accelerator Test Facility (BNL ATF). The components of the proof-of principle experiment are presented. |
