Angular Distribution of Transition Radiation in the Soft X-Ray Spectrum.
Abstract
The angular distribution of transition radiation has been investigated theoretically and experimentally. The theoretical prediction and the computer graphic analysis are presented in families of plots which illustrate the dependence of the intensity on the emission angle. Although the experimental method used had limited resolution, the optimum cone angles of the x ray radiation were in agreement with the theoretical values. Problems encountered during the experiment are discussed for continuing work. This work may have several important applications in electron beam diagnostics. These include monitoring of the beam emittance and energy. Keywords: Theses; Emission angle; Angular distribution; Transition radiation; Soft x ray' Interference; Multifoil stack; Radiation cone.
