6. It should be noted that "quad-scan" techniques measure only the whole-beam average emittance values and are affected by space charge. There is no ability to raster through individual sections of the beam, and beam statistics must be gathered over a large number of pulses as the magnet parameters are varied. Transition radiation techniques are unaffected by space charge considerations.
