On the problem of application of diffracted transition radiation for indication of relativistic electron beam parameters

The model calculations of the electron beam divergence parameters on the base of “measured” yield of DTR photons traversing through a slit collimator are carried out. The results of the calculation show that the proposed in this work formula can be successfully used as a base for the development of methods for measuring the divergence of beams of relativistic ultrahigh-energy electrons based on DTR angular distributio
