In this paper, we describe a direct measurement of foil focusing of an intense, relativistic electron beam com-bined with the pepper-pot technique to perform emit-tance measurements. Foil focusing occurs when a thin, grounded, conducting foil shorts out the radial electric field of a transiting electron beam, causing its self-magnetic field to focus the beam. A 40-ns pulse was extracted from the main pulse of the 16-MeV, 1.65 kA beam from Axis-II of the Dual Axis Radiographic Hy-drodynamic Test Facility to perform the measurements. We show that not accounting for foil focusing signifi-cantly reduces the measured emittance.
