In the case of single-digit picosecond bunch length, synchrotron light sources produce intense coherent radiation up to the THz range. The reduction of the bunch length by lowering the momentum compaction factor (low-$\alpha$) gives rise to…
A radially-coupled coaxial fast Faraday cup design was presented in [1] for high-intensity non-relativistic proton beams. In this work, we discuss a modification of that design in the context of a relatively lower intensity ion beam for…
Odometry on aerial robots has to be of low latency and high robustness whilst also respecting the Size, Weight, Area and Power (SWAP) constraints as demanded by the size of the robot. A combination of visual sensors coupled with Inertial…
Fermilab Booster synchrotron requires an intensity upgrade from 4.5x1012 to 6.5x1012 protons per pulse as a part of Fermilab's Proton Improvement Plan-II (PIP-II). One of the factors which may limit the high-intensity performance is the…
