2 504: Lecture Last Latexed: April 16, 010 at 11:56 where t = t e + R(t e )/c, dt/dt e =1+(dR/cdt e )=1 ˆn β(t e ), So expressing the integral over t e,wehave e iω(te+r(te)/c) ) β 8π c (1 ˆn β) dt e, and now that there are not references to t left we can drop the subscript e Assuming the region in which β is nonzero is small compared to R, wecan write R(t) =R ˆn r(t), where the observer is a distance R from the origin, which is near the region where the scattering occurs, and r(t) istheposition of the particle relative to that origin Then 8π c eiωr/c e iω(t ˆn r(t)/c) ) β (1 ˆn β) dt In calculating d I/dωdΩ the phase factor e iωr/c will be irrelevant We note that the piece in the integrand multiplying the exponential can be written as a total time derivative: d dt ( β) 1 ˆn β = ( β) 1 ˆn β + ( β)(ˆn β) (1 ˆn β) = [(ˆn β)ˆn β](1 ˆn β)+[(ˆn β)ˆn β](ˆn β) (1 ˆn β) = (ˆn β)(ˆn β) β(1 ˆn β) (1 ˆn β) ) β = (1 ˆn β) Thus we have 8π c eiωr/c e iω(t ˆn r(t)/c) d ( β) dt 1 ˆn β dt (1) It may be useful to integrate by parts, but we will also see, when we discuss the low freuency limit of bremsstrahlung, that this is useful as is
3 504: Lecture Last Latexed: April 16, 010 at 11:56 3 Integrating by parts, assuming that boundary terms at t = ± can be discarded, and inserting in the intensity, we have d I dωdω = ω 4π c e iω(t ˆn r(t)/c) ( β ) (t) dt Wigglers and Undulators We saw that the pulse of radiation received by an observer from an ultrarelativistic charged particle undergoing transverse acceleration consists of many freuencies up to an X-ray cutoff This unintentional effect of early high energy accelerators was tapped into by condensed matter experimentalists and biologists who could make use of very intense short pulses of X-rays But for many purposes a monochromatic rather than broad-spectrum source would be useful Enhanced radiation is also possible if you want it To achieve this, one can produce periodic motion of the particles with a seuence of magnets, called either wigglers or undulators, depending on how significant the oscillations are A seuence of alternately directed magnets can produce a charged particle path with transverse sinusoidal oscillations, x = a sin πz/λ 0 The angle of the beam will vary by ψ 0 = θ = dx/dz =πa/λ 0 The spread in angle of the forward radiation is θ r 1/γ, centered on the momentary direction of the beam Thus if ψ 0 θ r, an observer will be within the field only part of each oscillation, and will see the source turning on and off In this case we have a wiggler At the source, that freuency is βc/λ 0 Each wiggle sends a pulse of time duration a fraction roughly (θ r /ψ 0 )ofone period, so t e (λ 0 /βc)(θ r /ψ 0 ), ψ 0 λ 0 γ ψ 0 but this is compressed for the observer by a factor of 1 ˆn β 1/γ,so the received pulse has t = λ 0 /cβγ 3 ψ 0 and has freuencies up to f 1 t γ 3 ψ 0 c/λ 0 Each pulse is incoherent, so the intensity is N times that of a single wiggle In the other limit, ψ 0 θ r, the observer is always in the intense region of the beam, but the beam is radiating coherently In the particle s rest frame λ 0 1 γ
4 504: Lecture Last Latexed: April 16, 010 at 11:56 4 the disturbing fields have a Fitzgerald-contracted wavelength λ 0 /γ, going by at βc, so the particle sees itself oscillating at ω =πcγβ/λ 0 πcγ/λ 0 But the observer in the lab would say the particle s clock is running slow and therefore the source freuency is ω /γ, but the Doppler contraction of the pulse increases the freuency by 1/(1 ˆn β) γ /(1+γ θ ) So all together the freuency observed is ω = ω γ(1 ˆn β) = 4πcγ λ 0 (1 + γ θ ) Note this is coherent radiation, so the intensity is proportional to N and the freuency has a spread proportional to 1/N We will be content with this rather ualitative discussion and skip the fine details of pp Thomson Scattering We saw (1418) that in the particle s rest frame the electric field is given by E = ( v), c R so the amplitude corresponding to a particular polarization vector ɛ is ɛ E = c R ɛ ( ( v) ) = c R ɛ v, as ɛ ˆn = 0 The power radiated with this polarization per sterradian is dp dω = ɛ 4πc v 3
5 504: Lecture Last Latexed: April 16, 010 at 11:56 5 If a free electron has an electric field E( x, t) = ɛ 0 E 0 e i k x iωt incident on it, it will have an acceleration v(t) e = ɛ 0 m E 0e i k x iωt If the motion is sufficiently limited to ignore the change in position and keep the particle non-relativistic, (x ee 0 /mω λ =πc/ω), the time average of ɛ v =( ɛ v)( v ɛ 0 )is 1 e E 0 ɛ ɛ m 0 and dp = c ( ) e dω 8π E 0 ɛ ɛ mc 0 Dividing this by the incident energy flux c E 0 /8π we get the cross section ( ) dσ e dω = ɛ ɛ mc 0 If the scattering angle is θ and the incident beam is unpolarized and the cross section summed over final polarizations, the factor of 1 ɛ f ɛ i = 1 π π dφ i π f i dφ f [(cos θ cos φ f, sin φ f, sin θ cos φ f ) 0 0 (cos φ i, sin φ i, 0)] = 1 π π dφ π i dφ f [(cos θ cos φ f cos φ i +sinφ f sin φ i ] 0 0 = 1 [ cos θ +1 ] where I have taken the incident direction to be z and the final (sin θ, 0, cos θ) Thus the unpolarized cross section is ( ) dσ e dω = 1+cos θ mc
6 504: Lecture Last Latexed: April 16, 010 at 11:56 6 This is called the Thomson formula The corresponding total cross section is σ T = 8π ( ) e 3 mc The uantity in parentheses is called the classical electron radius, roughly the radius at which a conducting sphere of charge e would have electrostatic energy e /r = mc (The factor of 1/, or of 3/5 for a uniformly charged sphere, is discarded) This formula disregarded recoil of the electron when hit by the electromagnetic wave Of course classically the cross section could have been measured with an arbitrarily weak field, so recoil could be neglected, but uantum-mechanically the minimum energy hitting the electron is hω, which gives a significant recoil if hω mc In fact, if we take uantum mechanics into account we are considering Compton scattering, for which, we learned as freshman, energy and momentum conservation insure that the outgoing photon has a increased wavelength, λ = λ + h mc (1 cos θ), or k k = 1 1+ hω mc (1 cos θ) It turns out that the uantum mechanical calculation (for a scalar particle) is the classical result times (k /k) : dσ dω QM, scalar = ( e mc ) ( ) k ɛ ɛ 0 k
