Smith-Purcell radiation from a charge moving above a grating of finite length and width

Smith-Purcell radiation (SPR), emitted when a charge passes above a periodic grating, is important for applications such as terahertz production and nondestructive bunch-length diagnostics. The grating width is shown to become an important parameter for accurately predicting the radiation, and espec...
