Abstract
A method is described for investigating the spatial and temporal characteristics of the potential well held responsible for collective acceleration of ions by relativistic electron beams. The method is based on direct probing of the potential well with an externally generated ion beam probe, observing the deflection of this probe with a scintillator-image converter streak camera system. In addition, time-resolved magnetic spectrometer measurements of the collectively accelerated ions are described. Time resolution is achieved by using a plastic scintillator and a fast streaking camera as the spectrometer’s detector. Examples of measurements are presented and the potential and limitations of the methods are discussed.
