RF photo-gun are the electron beam sources of FELs or Compton facilities. They are key components and, presently, the RF technology mostly used for these devices is the S band (3 GHz) with typical cathode peak fields of 80-120 MV/m and repetition rates lower than 100-120 Hz. An innovative C-Band (5.712 GHz) RF gun aiming at reaching cathode peak field larger than 160 MV/m, with repetition...
We have performed a beam profile measurement of the ultra-slow muon for the transmission muon microscope, which is being developed at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). A laser ionization of thermal muonium generates the ultra-slow muon. The generated ultra-slow muon is extracted by an electrostatic lens and transported to the beam profile monitor, which consists of a...
