N2 - Charged particle beam diagnostics is a key task in modern and future accelerator installations.The diagnostic tools are practically the \eyes" of the operators. The precision and resolutionof the diagnostic equipment are crucial to dene the performance of the accelerator. Transitionand Diraction Radiation (TR and DR) are widely used for electron beam parameter monitoring.However, the precision and resolution of those devices are determined by how well the production,transport and detection of these radiation types are understood. This paper reports on simulationsof TR and DR spatial-spectral characteristics using the Physical Optics Propagation (POP) modeof the Zemax advanced optics simulation software. A good consistency with theory is demonstrated.Also, realistic optical system alignment issues are discussed.
