Abstract;The characteristics and the behaviors of the single-bunch electron beams generated with the L-band linac at The Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research in Osaka University have been investigated. The maximum charge of electrons in a bunch is 73nC, which has been achieved by the development of the high-current electron gun. The length of the bunch at the maximum charge, which has been measured with a streak camera is 26ps in FWHM. In the transportation of the single-bunch beam through a chicane-type bunch compressor the peak shift of the energy spectrum of the beam has been observed, which has been attributed to the energy loss due to the coherent synchrotron radiation. The possible application researches using the beams are discussed. (author abst.)
