A method for producing short electron bunches in an electron storage ring using pulsed phase modulation has been demonstrated. A simple theoretical model was validated using the particle tracking code elegant, and the bunch compression process was observed experimentally in the Advanced Photon Source storage ring using a visible light streak camera. Compression to 54% of the initial bunch length was achieved.
