| Abstract |
An electron energy measurement setup based on the detection of Compton backscattered photons, generated by laser light scattered off the relativistic electron beam, has been proposed and developed for operation at the ANKA storage ring of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). In contrast to conventional methods based on head-on collisions, the setup at ANKA is, for the first time, realized in a transverse configuration where the laser beam hits the electron beam at an angle of ~90°. This makes it possible to achieve a relatively low-cost and very compact setup since it only requires a small side-port instead of a straight section. This development could benefit storage rings with restricted space or where no straight sections are available, for example due to interferences with existing beamlines. The setup and the first measurement results are presented in the paper.
