Abstract Electron beams traversing a dispersive region, such as a bunch compressor and some transport line can form caustic lines and surfaces corresponding to regions of maximum electron density, which influence the current pulse shape. In this paper, we present a technique to manipulate the longitudinal phase space distribution to achieve an arbitrary, desired current pulse shape. We show how sextupole magnets (and in certain circumstances, octupole magnets), placed within a dispersive region can be used to generate the conditions required for a flexible technique of current pulse shaping that avoids truncation through collimation.
