This order of magnitude difference is fundamentally related to the greater time of flight before the focus of the $ f = 60\text{mm} $ lens; it increases the impulse that the internal Coulomb force can exert on the pulse as its charge density is increased under focusing. -A consequent further effect is a shift in the focal position to $ z > f $. +A consequent further effect is a shift in the focal position to $ z^{\prime} > f $. A more subtle effect is that oblate pulses are more readily focused than prolate pulses --- the rate of transverse pulse broadening due to space-charge effects already being intrinsically greater in the latter (\ref{fig:compare_shape}). %TODO? include simulations for different voltages to establish TOF argument? diff --git a/inc/model_results/lens_charge/lens_charge_plot.tex b/inc/model_results/lens_charge/lens_charge_plot.tex index 33ae177..9486aeb 100644 --- a/inc/model_results/lens_charge/lens_charge_plot.tex +++ b/inc/model_results/lens_charge/lens_charge_plot.tex @@ -45,7 +45,7 @@ Each plot's pulses begin at the lens' front focal plane at velocity $c/3$ (related to 30 kV energy) and have the same volume.

One can see that though the pulse size does increase beyond a certain total pulse charge, and while that trend appears to start at a higher charge, due to the complexity of the pulse dynamics it is rather difficult to compare the exact charge-density from this plot to that in the idealistic case. What can be seen is that the transverse size increases more sharply with pulse charge at higher levels. -Since the pulse is already diverging in the transverse direction, this is compounded by the increased pulse charge. -This divergence then acts to lower the overall charge-density more quickly, thus the longitudinal pulse length is not affected as strongly as was seen in \ref{fig:spacecharge_noacc}. +Recall that the pulse is already diverging in the transverse direction, the increased pulse charge now serves to compound this action. +This increased divergence then acts to lower the overall charge-density more quickly, thus the longitudinal pulse length is not affected as strongly as was seen in \ref{fig:spacecharge_noacc}.
