Title: Coherent beamsstrahlung

Conference · · IEEE Trans. Nucl. Sci.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6298695

The radiation coherently emitted by a high energy bunched beam suffering an arbitrarily large disruption in a collision with an idealized undisrupted beam is calculated. The near-luminal velocity of the beam--such that the emitted radiation moves very slowly with respect to the bunch--implies that only a small part of the bunch radiates coherently and necessitates a careful treatment of the disrupted beam phase space during emission. The angular distribution and spectral density are presented. It is found that most of the radiation is at wave lengths greater than or equal to the bunch length and that the total energy lost by the beam due to coherent effects should be negligible in high energy - high luminosity linear colliders.
