Cherenkov Diffraction Radiation Interferometry for Beam Divergence Diagnostics
arXiv:2607.26573
summary
The paper proposes a new interferometric technique that uses Cherenkov diffraction radiation to measure the divergence of charged particle beams.
Abstract
Cherenkov radiation (ChR) is widely used in charged-beam diagnostics, including bunch-length measurements and beam-loss monitoring. Synchrotron radiation (SR) interferometry is a well-established technique for measuring beam size. This work combines these approaches by proposing a ChR-based interferometric method for measuring beam divergence.
