The longitudinal drift expansion and compression of a space-charge dominated electron beam with a parabolic line charge profile has been studied experimentally to verify the validity of the longitudinal envelope equation. The experimental configuration and measurement results are reported. Good agreement is found between theoretical predictions from the envelope calculations and experimental results.
