OTR from Non-Relativistic Electrons

The CLIC Test Facility 3 (CTF3) injector will provide pulsed beams of high average current; 5A over 1.56µs at 140keV. For transverse beam sizes of the order of 1mm, as foreseen, this implies serious damage to the commonly used scintillating screens. Optical Transition Radiation from thermally resist...

description The CLIC Test Facility 3 (CTF3) injector will provide pulsed beams of high average current; 5A over 1.56µs at 140keV. For transverse beam sizes of the order of 1mm, as foreseen, this implies serious damage to the commonly used scintillating screens. Optical Transition Radiation from thermally resistant radiators represents a possible alternative. In this context, the backward OTR radiation emitted from an aluminium screen by a 80keV, 60nC, 4ns electron pulse has been investigated. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical expectations, indicating a feeble light intensity distributed over a large solid angle. Our conclusions for the design of the CTF3 injector profile monitor are also given.
