MC4.A01: Beam diagnostics

Plenary Talk (Invitation Only)

PolariX transverse deflection structures (TDS) are installed at different accelerators at DESY and PSI to enable advanced characterization of the particle beams for applications like free-electron lasers, beam-driven plasma acceleration, or advanced acceleration R&D projects. The variable streaking angle of PolariX – a differentiating capability of this TDS – allows us to apply a variety of...
