    We present the theory of coherent transition radiation (CTR) generated by ellipsoidal electron bunches. We calculate analytical expressions for the electric field spectrum, the power spectrum, and the temporal electric field of CTR, generated by cylindrically symmetric ellipsoidal electron bunches with hard and soft edges. This theory is relevant for diagnostics of ellipsoidal electron bunches. Realization of such bunches would solve the problem of space-charge induced emittance degradation

    A História da Alimentação: balizas historiográficas

    Full text link
    Os M. pretenderam traçar um quadro da História da Alimentação, não como um novo ramo epistemológico da disciplina, mas como um campo em desenvolvimento de práticas e atividades especializadas, incluindo pesquisa, formação, publicações, associações, encontros acadêmicos, etc. Um breve relato das condições em que tal campo se assentou faz-se preceder de um panorama dos estudos de alimentação e temas correia tos, em geral, segundo cinco abardagens Ia biológica, a econômica, a social, a cultural e a filosófica!, assim como da identificação das contribuições mais relevantes da Antropologia, Arqueologia, Sociologia e Geografia. A fim de comentar a multiforme e volumosa bibliografia histórica, foi ela organizada segundo critérios morfológicos. A seguir, alguns tópicos importantes mereceram tratamento à parte: a fome, o alimento e o domínio religioso, as descobertas européias e a difusão mundial de alimentos, gosto e gastronomia. O artigo se encerra com um rápido balanço crítico da historiografia brasileira sobre o tema

    RF-photogun as ultra bright terahertz source

    No full text
    Recently research into new terahertz (0.3 to 30 THz) light sources has gained a lot of interest. Especially compact sources capable of delivering high peak fields (?? 1 MV/cm), in a short pulse. To achieve this,we will use short relativistic electron bunches, created by photoemission and accelerated in an rf-photogun, to create THz light by means of coherent transition radiation. Because wavelengths smaller and comparable to the bunch length add up coherently, the intensity scales with N2, with N the number of electrons in the bunch. In the first experiments we expect to create THz light pulses with a bandwidth of 1 THz and 1 µJ per pulse. If such a light pulse is focused on a spot of radius 250 µm, this corresponds to peak electrical fields of 1 MV/cm. The eventual goal is to increase the bandwidth of the source, by creating shorter electron bunches. This will be accomplished by choosing a suitable radial laser profile, leading to ellipsoidal electron bunches, which can be focused and compressed very effectively. Eventually this will lead to THz pulses with a bandwidth of 10 THz and energy of 100 µJ. This corresponds to peak electrical fields of 10 MV/cm and higher
