Optical circular deflector with attosecond resolution for ultrashort electron beam

A novel method using high-power laser as a circular deflector is proposed for the measurement of femtosecond (fs) and sub-fs electron beam. In the scheme, the electron beam interacts with a laser pulse operating in a radially polarized doughnut mode (TEM_{01^{*}}) in a helical undulator, generating...
