Non-destructive singlepass monitor of longitudinal charge distribution in an ultrarelativistic electron bunch

We present here the first experimental test of a singlepass non-destructive method of monitoring of longitudinal charge distribution in an intensive relativistic electron bunch. This method is based on the scanning of a thin electron beam within the energy range 20-100 keV in the electromagnetic field of an intensive relativistic bunch

Performace of a radio-frequency-based strak camera

We have experimented with a streak camera based on radio-frequency detection of the electron beam. The time-resolution was measured to lie in the sub-ps domain. The method allowed considerable simplification of triggering, weaker dependence on space-charge within the electron beam, high modularity, and ease of implementation. We discuss experimental results and future prospects

Setting up and time-resolution measurement of a radio-frequency-based streak camera

We have experimented with a radio-frequency-based streak camera. The basic idea behind the method consists of magnetic deflection of the electron beam imparted by a radio-frequency cavity. All the components of the camera were tested and the time resolution was measured to lie within the sub-ps domain. Further advantages of the method are simplification of triggering, weaker dependence on space-charge effect within the electron beam, high modularity, and ease of implementation
