Abstract

We show that the radiation emitted by betatron oscillations of a high-energy electron beam undergoing wake-field acceleration is endowed with peculiar coherence properties which deliver quantitative information about the electron trajectories. Such results are achieved by means of accurate numerical simulations and a simple geometrical model gives a clear physical interpretation.
