Abstract :
We show that X-ray pulses one order of magnitude shorter than the electron bunch length can be obtained through synchrobetatron coupling. A 6-ps rms visible light pulse from a 30-ps rms electron bunch was observed using a streak camera. Theory, simulation, and experimental results are presented.
