Abstract
The design of a detector invented to measure the positions of synchrotron radiation beams for the precision energy spectrometers of the Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) is described. The energy measurements involve the determination, on a pulse-by-pulse basis, of the separation of pairs of intense beams of synchrotron photons in the megaelectronvolt energy range. The detector intercepts the beams with arrays of fine wires. The ejection of Compton recoil electrons results in charges being developed in the wires, thus enabling a determination of beam positions. >

The electronics and data acquisition system for the wire imaging synchrotron radiation detector at the SLC

TL;DR: The Stanford Large Collider (SLC) at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center collides electrons and positrons produced in the linear accelerator pulse by pulse The energy of each beam is determined by measuring the angle of deflection of the beam in the SLC extraction lines as mentioned in this paper.

The electronics and data acquisition system for the Wire Imaging Synchrotron Radiation Detector at the SLC (Stanford Linear Collider)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the energy of each beam by measuring the angle of deflection of the beam in the SLC extraction lines, which consists of two bending magnets that produce synchrotron radiation, and a spectrometer analyzing magnet that deflects the beam.
