Demonstration of a laserwire emittance scanner for hydrogen ion beams at CERN

A noninvasive, compact laserwire system has been developed to measure the transverse emittance of an H^{-} beam and has been demonstrated at the new LINAC4 injector for the LHC at CERN. Light from a low power, pulsed laser source is conveyed via fiber to collide with the H^{-} beam, a fraction of wh...
