Advanced X-ray Imaging Techniques

This paper details the development of a single-shot diagnostic technique for the 4D average and core phase space densities of low-charge, high-brightness electron beams, based on the analysis of shadow point-projection images of metal grids. This technique is similar to the standard pepper pot method, although it allows much greater transmission of the beam and therefore is more suitable for low-charge electron beams. Transverse coupling terms are included in the analysis, allowing the complete 4D transverse beam matrix to be reconstructed. The 4D beam phase space information is extremely important for the characterization of nonround beams. An analysis of the resolution limits and experimental benchmarking of the technique with pepper-pot emittance measurements are presented.
