Characterization of non-relativistic attosecond electron pulses by transition radiation from tilted surfaces

We consider analytically and numerically the emission of coherent transition radiation by few-femtosecond and attosecond electron pulses. With optimized geometries based on tilted surfaces we avoid the influences of the beam diameter and velocity mismatch for sub-relativistic pulses. We predict the...
