Generation of high-power, tunable terahertz radiation from laser interaction with a relativistic electron beam
We propose a method based on the slice energy spread modulation to generate strong subpicosecond density bunching in high-intensity relativistic electron beams. A laser pulse with periodic intensity envelope is used to modulate the slice energy spread of the electron beam, which can then be converte...
