Observation and simulation of space-charge effects in a radio-frequency photoinjector using a transverse multibeamlet distribution
We report on an experimental study of space-charge effects in a radio-frequency (rf) photoinjector. A 5 MeV electron bunch, consisting of a number of beamlets separated transversely, was generated in an rf photocathode gun and propagated in the succeeding drift space. The collective interaction of t...
