110. Design Study for a THz Radiation Source at PAL e-labs via Plasma-Induced Electron Beam Microbunching

Theo Williams (James Cook University)

Talk

Microbunching of a long electron beam via interaction with a 1 THz plasma is investigated as a mechanism for generating coherent terahertz (THz) radiation. This work presents a theoretical design study for the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) e-labs beamline, evaluating dependence of initial electron beam parameters on microbunch formation following plasma interaction.

The initial...
