Pulsed Field Emission Cathode Emittance Measurements

Abstract
A technique is described for the precise determination of the emittance diagrams for megavolt electron beams at energy fluences of up to 100 J/cm2. Two megaelectron volt beams from both single point hemispherical stainless steel and planar graphite emitters were studied, and emittance figures of 6.4 and 10.4 mrad·cm, respectively, were obtained for the central 4 mm diam portion of the streams generated by each configuration.
