The reduction of a particle’s wave function in the process of radiation or light scattering is a longstanding problem. Its solution will give a clue on processes that form, for example, wave functions of electrons constantly emitting synchrotron radiation quanta in storage rings. On a more global scale, it may shed light on wave function collapse due to the process of measurement. In this paper we consider various experimental options using Fermilab electron beams and a possible electron beam from the SNS linac and lasers to detect electron wave function change due to Compton scattering. |

Funding: ORNL is managed by UT-Battelle, LLC, under contract DE-AC05-00OR22725 for the U.S. Department of Energy. The SNS accelerator at ORNL has been operating near the MW level for several years now. This presentation will discuss the successes and challenges, new insight gained and lessons learned with regard to the operation of a modern high power accelerator. In particular, issues with the RFQ, the target and the superconducting RF linac will be discussed. |
