Abstract
Measurements of the transmittance of infrared radiation (v < 500 cm(-1 )) through cylindrical waveguides are presented and discussed. The exp erimental results are compared with numerical simulations, obtained th rough conventional ray tracing programs. Finally, we estimate the tran smittance of a waveguide in the case of an infrared synchrotron radiat ion source. We apply our results to the case of the DA Phi NE collider , where a synchrotron radiation beamline for the far infrared is under construction.
