Picosecond timing of microwave Cherenkov impulses from high-energy particle showers using dielectric-loaded waveguides
We report on the first measurements of coherent microwave impulses from high-energy particle-induced electromagnetic showers generated via the Askaryan effect in a dielectric-loaded waveguide. Bunches of 12.16 GeV electrons with total bunch energy of ∼10^{3}–10^{4} GeV were preshowered in tungsten,...
