Aronson, S H; Fernow, R C

Electric fields on the order of 1 GV/m may be achievable with very short (few ps) pulses. A field of 0.3 GV/m is equivalent in deflecting strength to a magnetic field of 1 Tesla. We consider here the possibility of replacing magnets (specifically final focus quadrupoles) with laser-switched devices. 7 refs., 3 figs.
