Generation of relativistic electron bunches with arbitrary current distribution via transverse-to-longitudinal phase space exchange
We propose a general method for tailoring the current distribution of relativistic electron bunches. The technique relies on a recently proposed method to exchange the longitudinal phase space emittance with one of the transverse emittances. The method consists of transversely shaping the bunch and...
