The electron beam is circulating at a distance of few mm from the edge of the radiator and the DChR photon output power is expected to be significantly higher than the diffraction radiation power emitted from a metal-lic slit of similar aperture. The radiator design and the detection set-up are presented in detail together with sim-ulations describing the expected properties of the emitted DChR in terms of light intensity and spectral bandwidth. Finally, potential applications of DChR are discussed.
