Emittance measurements with optical transition radiation at the S-DALINAC

A new emittance measurement system has been installed at the superconducting, recirculating electron accelerator S-DALINAC. It is based on the quadrupole-scan technique and beam profile measurements with optical transition radiation. A first demonstration of this setup has been conducted as part of the beam-based alignment of an SRF cavity. The corresponding emittance measurement is described here, and the following data evaluation is...
