摘要
A Monte Carlo code is developed to study mega-electron-volt (MeV) electron scattering and transport in plasma based on multiple scattering. A scaling law relating the angular width of a scattered beam to the incident electron energy and the areal density of plasma is found, which may provide a method of MeV electron radiography for diagnosing the area/density of high-temperature, dense plasma under fusion conditions. The study on the MeV electron beam radiography also shows that plasma density interfaces could be discriminated by electron scattering.
