    Čerenkov radiation and electromagnetic pulse produced by electron beams traversing a finite path in air

    Coherent Čerenkov radiation has been investigated previously in the time domain for an infinite path. The present calculations for a finite path length show an effect analogous to diffraction (in the frequency domain) in which radiation fields appear both at Cerenkov angles and at other angles. The latter have previously been named electromagnetic pulse fields.Hydrodynamics Group, Los Alamos National Laboratory, For Fred R.

    Time development of Čerenkov radation

    Get PDF
    Most development of Čerenkov radiation are in terms of the Fourier components of the fields and power emitted by a single electron. When many electrons in a compact bunch are emitted from an accelerator, the bunch radiates coherently and at a lower frequency than for a single electron. the theory for the time structure of the fields arising from a charge bunch is developed, and it is shown that the source of the radiation is di/dt. Present detector technology should be able to resolve those fields.Supported by the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School Foundation Research Program and by the U.S. Naval Surface Weapon Center, White Oak, MDApproved for public release; distribution is unlimited

    Čerenkov radiation from a finite-length path in a gas

    Get PDF
    Measurement of microwave Čerenkov radiation is air show that the Čerenkov cone angle is broadened as predicted in earlier work. Extension of previous theory shows that for small Čerenkov angles, the broadening is asymmetric, giving an increase in the effective cone angle to a value in agreement with the experimental results. The shift in radiation peak can be understood as a diffraction effect arising from the linearly varying phase of the radiation along the beam interaction length.This work was partially supported by the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School Foundation Research Program and partially supported by the Office of Naval Research, U.S. Department of the Nav
