Abstract:

The absolute differential production efficiencies from foil stack materials for an electron beam energy of 65 MeV were measured. The spectra shapes and the absolute differential production efficiencies for each of the four foil stacks are well matched by the calculated values. The transition radiation cone was measured using a motor driven detector. The measured apex angle is in agreement with the optimum radiation cone angle. Aluminum bandwidth narrowing associated with K edge absorption was observed. The production intensity was compared with the theoretical prediction and interpreted in terms of absorption and coherence. Keywords Theses Transition Radiation Radiation Cone Coherence Differential Production Efficiency Absorption.
