It can provide beam of several bunches in a train of nano-seconds and 10s of nC with energy up to 70 MeV. In addition, the AWA can accommodate various beamlines for experiments. One of the proposed experiments is to use the AWA beam as a diagnostics for time resolved high density material, typically a target with high Z and time dependent, imaging experiments. When electron beam scatters after passing through the target, and the angular and energy distribution of beam will depend on the density and thickness of the target. A small aperture is used to collimate the scattered electron beam for off axis particles, and the target image will be detected by imaging plate. By measuring the scatted angle and energy at the imaging plate would yield information of the target. In this paper, we report on the AWA electron imaging (EI) system setup, which consist of a target, imaging optics and drift transport. The AWA EI beam line was installed on June, 2016 and the first test run was performed on August, 2016. This work will have implication on the high energy density physics and even future nuclear fusion studies.
