Abstract

Description

The operation and parameters of Bunch Shape Monitors using coherent transformation of time structure of an analyzed beam into a spatial one of low energy secondary electrons emitted from a wire target is influenced by the characteristics of a beam under study. The electromagnetic field of a bunch disturbs the trajectories of secondary electrons, thus resulting in a degradation of phase resolution and in errors of phase reading. Another effect is the perturbation of the target potential due to the current in the wire induced by a bunch as well as due to current compensating emission of the secondary electrons. The methods, the models and the results of simulations are presented.
