| abstract: | Radiation emitted by relativistic electrons traversing the magnetic field gradients of a chicane bunch compressor has been studied in an attempt to characterize coherent edge radiation (CER). The studies performed at the Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) include frequency spectrum, angular distribution, and polarization measurements. A reconstruction of the longitudinal charge profile from the measured spectrum shows that the bunch has been compressed to approximately 30 μm FWHM, with a peak current exceeding 1.5 kA. Measurements of radiation from the short pulses are compared to predictions from QUINDI, a new simulation code developed at UCLA to model the radiation. |
