Observation of focusing effect in optical transition and diffraction radiation generated from a spherical target

For the first time the focusing effect in optical transition and diffraction radiation generated by 1.28 GeV electrons in a tilted spherical target has been observed experimentally. A comparison of detected as well as simulated radiation spatial distributions produced by a flat and a spherical targe...
