First measurement of energy diffusion in an electron beam due to quantum fluctuations in the undulator radiation
Abstract Plasma and beam physics are usually considered as classical physics disciplines with quantum effects featuring only rarely. In particular, free electron lasers (FELs) even in the Angstrom regime (developed recently and being upgraded towards even shorter wavelengths) are well described by c...
