Four-dimensional beam tomography
A computer code has been developed to reconstruct the 4-D transverse phase-space distribution of an accelerator beam from a set of linear profiles measured at different angles at three or more stations along the beam line. The code was applied to wire-scan data obtained on the low-intensity H/sup -/ beam of the LAMPF accelerator. A 4-D reconstruction was obtained from 10 wire-scan profiles; 2-D projections of the reconstruction agree fairly well with slit-and-collector measurements of the horizontal and vertical emittance distributions
Nonequilibrium corrections in the pressure tensor due to an energy flux
The physical interpretation of the nonequilibrium corrections in the pressure
tensor for radiation submitted to an energy flux obtained in some previous
works is revisited. Such pressure tensor is shown to describe a moving
equilibrium system but not a real nonequilibrium situation.Comment: 4 pages, REVTeX, Brief Report to appear in PRE Dec 9
