The first electron lenses -understood as "lenses made of electrons" rather than "lenses to focus electrons" -were envisioned in the mid-1990s and built in the early 2000s for compensation of beam-beam effects in the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider. Since then, the lenses -a novel instrument for high-energy particle accelerators -have been added to the toolbox of modern beam facilities, being particularly useful for the energy frontier superconducting hadron colliders ("supercolliders"). In this article we briefly present the history of ideas and developments toward effective use of low-energy high-current bright electron beams in high energy accelerators and discuss the promise of their future applications.

“…The Fermilab electron-lens test stand is a laboratory dedicated to the study of beam physics and technology related to electron lenses. It was set up in the late 1990s in support of the first electron lenses, built for the Tevatron collider [125,126]. It has been used to characterize high-perveance electron guns, to measure the effects of space charge on magnetized beam dynamics, and to study trapped plasma columns.…”

The Tevatron Electron Lens (TEL) installed in the Tevatron at FNAL bends a 10-keV electron beam into and out of the antiproton path. The stringent requirements of the electron beam path demand extremely straight magnetic field lines over roughly two meters which then bend away to the gun and collector. A 6-Tesla superconducting solenoid and two normal-conducting solenoids, supplemented with several dipole and quadrupole correctors, were constructed at IHEP and subsequently assembled and tested at FNAL. Several testing methods, with an resolution of approximately 2 µrad, confirmed the field profile to match computer models and meet necessary constraints. Visual inspection of the beam position and size on screens confirmed the measurements. This paper analyzes these results and relates them to the system requirements.
