Abstract:
For the successful operation of various accelerator facilities a detailed bunch characterization is required. A complete description can be achieved using various diagnostic systems installed along an accelerator beamline. Ideally the diagnostic should be able to measure parameters of a single bunch in a non-destructive manner. For bunch length measurements this results in a complicated task especially for bunch duration below 1 ps. One of the possible solutions is a diagnostic based on the interaction of a low energy electron beam with electro-magnetic fields of the relativistic bunch. The bunch length can be readily deduced from the resulting scatter. In this paper bunch length measurement technique based on a low energy electron beam is introduced. Results of numerical simulations of measurements are presented. A possible setup of such diagnostic system for bERLinPro facility is proposed.
