Analysis of figure-8-undulator radiation
Journal of Synchrotron Radiation
|March 1, 1996
Abstract:
The figure-8 undulator is a novel insertion device which has recently been proposed in order to obtain linearly polarized radiation with low on-axis power density. Since the trajectory is different from any other insertion device developed or proposed so far, the features of figure-8-undulator radiation are also considered to be different. In this paper, various features of figure-8-undulator radiation are investigated to clarify differences between the figure-8 undulator and other ordinary insertion devices.

The de Broglie Wavelength
In the macroscopic world, objects that are large enough to be seen by the naked eye follow the rules of classical physics. A billiard ball moving on a table will behave like a particle; it will continue traveling in a straight line unless it collides with another ball, or it is acted on by some other force, such as friction. The ball has a well-defined position and velocity or well-defined momentum, p = mv, which is defined by mass m and velocity v at any given moment. This is the typical...
Mass Analyzers: Common Types
The quadrupole mass analyzer consists of four cylindrical metal rods arranged in a diamond carrying a DC voltage and a radio-frequency AC voltage. The motion of ions through the quadrupole depends on the field strength, causing only ions of a certain m/z to resonate successfully and strike the detector at a given field strength. Though the transmission rate for these analyzers is high, the exact elemental composition of the sample is not determined because of low resolution; however, they are...
Bewley Lattice Diagram
The Bewley lattice diagram, developed by L. V. Bewley, effectively organizes the reflections occurring during transmission-line transients. It visually represents how voltage waves propagate and reflect within a transmission line, making it easier to understand the complex interactions that occur.
