Resonant nonlinear refraction of 4.3-μm light in CO 2 gas

Here, we use time- and frequency-resolved measurements of self-focusing and self-defocusing of 4.3-μm radiation in CO 2 gas to study the resonant nonlinear optical response in the vicinity of individual rovibrational lines. Measurements over a range of lines on the 4P and 4R branch of the 000-001 transition indicate that the nonlinear response of CO 2 is strongly affected by power broadening, resulting in a sign reversal of the nonlinearity as compared to that of a saturable two-level system.

Experimental study of the spatial distributions of relativistic electron beams reflected and refracted by a thin foil

Photographs of cross sections of an electron beam scattered from thin foils have been obtained on a dosimetric film. The procession of images makes it possible to obtain the spatial distribution of particles both reflected from a foil and passed through it. The spatial distribution of electrons incident on aluminum, copper, and lead foils, as well as on bimetallic foils composed of aluminum and lead layers and of aluminum and copper layers, has been measured. The effect of the material and thickness of the foil, as well as of the angle between the initial beam trajectory and the target plane, on the spatial distribution of electrons has been studied. The effect of the sequence of the metal layers in bimetallic foils on the distribution of beams has been analyzed. A 7.4-MeV microtron has been used as a source of electrons.

Sample Code for "An automated approach to the alignment of compound refractive lenses"

This sample code is intended to be publicly released on DOECODE. It is an accompaniment to "n automated approach to the alignment of compoundrefractive lenses". It's two small, mostly self-contained scripts that include the complete details necessary to implement the to-be published article's algorithm at a scientific beamline.
