Abstract :
We report on the collision of 1.5 ps (FWHM) laser pulses traversing at 17° a short ∼7 ps (FWHM) 46.6 GeV electron bunch. The phase-locked system used to maintain the correct timing of the laser pulses and the appropriate diagnostics are described. The jitter between the laser and electron pulses is determined from the stability of the observed rate of Compton scatters and can be described by a Gaussian distribution with σj ⋍ 2.2 ps.
