Electron Beam Excitation of a Surface Wave in mm-Wave Open Accelerating Structures Open
As part of research on the physics of rf breakdowns we performed experiments with high gradient traveling-wave mm-wave accelerating structures. The accelerating structures are open, composed of two identical halves separated by an adjustab…

Measurements of RF Breakdowns in Beam Driven mm-Wave Accelerating Structures Open
We studied the physics and properties of rf breakdowns in high gradient traveling-wave accelerating structures at 100 GHz. The structures are open, made of two halves with a gap in between. The rf fields were excited in the structure by an…

Achieved Performance of an All X-band Photo-injector Open
Building more compact accelerators to deliver high brightness electron beams for the generation of high flux, highly coherent radiation is a priority for the photon science community. A relatively straightforward reduction in footprint can…

Mega-electron-volt ultrafast electron diffraction at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory Open
Ultrafast electron probes are powerful tools, complementary to x-ray free-electron lasers, used to study structural dynamics in material, chemical, and biological sciences. High brightness, relativistic electron beams with femtosecond puls…

Forecasting tomorrow's technology today [Spectral Lines] Open
Early in 2014, IEEE Spectrum teamed up with SciCast, the "Bayesian combinatorial prediction market" group based at George Mason University, in Fairfax, Va. And when our January Top Tech 2015 issue hit the Web, IEEE Spectrum added s…
