8. Operating Parameters Pulse length: 5 ps Beam energy: 50 – 70 MeV Beam current: 40-100 A Emittance: ~3 mm-mrad Initial beam size: 400-500  m Convergence: ~2 mrad Acceleration phase: on crest Copper OTR screen Basler CCD camera equipped with a Nikkor macro lens (100 mm) Cam sensitivity: 0.4 – 1  m

9. Experimental Results: 40% Relative Noise suppression OTR of an uncorrelated e-beam ~ N ~ Q

10. In reality the beam profile was far from being uniform. The experiment was conducted with strong convergence in order to pass through the long straight pipe of the chicane. The beam envelope was calculated with GPT (including space-charge) based on beam spot measurements on screens YAG1, YAG2, and quadrupole current data, confirmed in YAG 3, YAG 4. In this situation of strong convergence angle and emittance, the suppression takes place primarily in the waist, and is deteriorated by axial velocity spread.

12. Next Experimental Stage Complement the successful free-drift noise-suppression experiment: calibrate the OTR measurement of noise, attain increased suppression factor. Use a short dispersive section (Chicane) based on high-power trimmers. Vary R56 using Chicane, and measure OTR in a single location after the Chicane.
