Longitudinal Bunch Profile Diagnostic For Magnetized Electron Beams, Mark Stefani, Fay Hannon Nov 2019

Longitudinal Bunch Profile Diagnostic For Magnetized Electron Beams, Mark Stefani, Fay Hannon

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

The study of magnetized electron beam has become a high priority for its use in ion beam cooling as part of electron ion colliders and the potential of easily forming flat beams with a large aspect ratio. In this paper, a new diagnostic is described with the purpose of studying longitudinal and transverse magnetized beam properties. The device is a modification to a typical pepper-pot. Specifically, this 1D pepper-pot was designed for use with a transverse deflecting cavity for longitudinal bunch profile measurements of magnetized beams.


Transverse Uncorrelated Emittance Diagnostic For Magnetized Electron Beams, Fay Hannon, Mark Stefani Oct 2019

Transverse Uncorrelated Emittance Diagnostic For Magnetized Electron Beams, Fay Hannon, Mark Stefani

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

The study of magnetized electron beam has become a high priority for its use in ion beam cooling as part of electron ion colliders and the potential of easily forming flat beams for various applications. In this paper, a purpose-specific diagnostic is described with the intention of studying transverse magnetized beam properties. The device is a modification to the classic pepper-pot, used in this context to measure the uncorrelated components of transverse emittance in addition to the typical effective emittance. The limitations of traditional methods are discussed, and simulated demonstrations of the new technique shown.
