Controlling nonlinear longitudinal space charge oscillations for high peak current bunch train generation

The evolution of picosecond modulations of the longitudinal profile of an electron beam generated in an rf photoinjector is analyzed and optimized with the goal of obtaining high peak current electron bunch trains at very high frequencies (≥THz). Taking advantage of nonlinear longitudinal space char...
