Peak Shift of Coherent Edge Radiation Spectrum Depending on Radio Frequency Field Phase of Accelerator

Abstract

Spectra of coherent edge radiation (CER) were observed at the S-band linac facility of Kyoto University Free Electron Laser. A local maximum was observed in the CER spectrum on-crest operation of the radio frequency (RF) field. As the phase of the RF field was shifted from the crest, the frequency of the maximum decreased, and the CER spectrum approached a spectrum of Gaussian-distributed electrons in a bunch. It was found that this strange spectrum can be explained by a model in which a satellite pulse exists around a main pulse in the electron bunch. Furthermore, it demonstrated that CER is an effective tool for monitoring the shape of the electron bunch.
