Time-Resolved Electron-Bunch Diagnostics Using Transverse Wakefields
The development of future free electron lasers (FELs) requires reliable time-resolved measurement of variable ultra-short electron-bunchs characteristics. A possible technique is to streak the bunch in the transverse direction by means of time-dependent external fields. In this paper we explore the possible use of self-generated electromagnetic fields *. A passive deflector, consisting of a dielectric-lined waveguide, is used to produce wakefields that impart a time-dependent transverse kick to the relativistic electron bunch passing off-axis. We investigate the technique and its performances and explore its possible application at the Fermilab Accelerator Science & Technology (FAST) facility.
