Abstract

The design of a beam transport system for the electron bunches of a Laser Wakefield Accelerator (LWFA) is challenging due to the large relative energy spread of the bunches. For the realization of an undulator radiation source at the LWFA based on a transverse gradient undulator (TGU) a well adapted transport system is essential. In this thesis the layout of such a system including the compensation of the energy spread and first experimental tests are presented.
