Funding: This work has partly been supported by the Initiative and Networking Fund of the Helmholtz Association under contract number VH-NG-320. In synchrotron radiation sources coherent radiation is emitted when the bunch length is comparable to or shorter than the wavelength of the emitted radiation. A detector system based on a superconducting NbN ultra-fast bolometer with an intrinsic response time of about 100 ps jointly developed by the University of Karlsruhe (Institute of micro- and nanoelectronic systems) and German Aerospace Center (Berlin) was used to resolve the radiation emitted from single bunches. This paper reports the observations made during measurements at the MLS and ANKA storage rings. |
