Vector electromagnetic theory of transition and diffraction radiation with application to the measurement of longitudinal bunch size

We have developed a novel method based on vector electromagnetic theory and Schelkunoff’s principles, to calculate the spectral and angular distributions of transition radiation (TR) and diffraction radiation (DR) produced by a charged particle interacting with an arbitrary metallic target. The vect...
