More Information
Summary:An electromagnetic wakefield detector placed in close proximity to a design trajectory of a non-relativistic charged particle beam produces an optical signal in response to passage of the charged particle beam without interrupting the charged particle beam. A photon detector receives the optical signal and produces a corresponding output. The wakefield detector may be based on the electro optic effect. Specifically, the detector may measure the effect of the charged particle beam a beam of radiation on the phase of radiation travelling parallel to the beam in a nearby electro optic waveguide.
