We have constructed a novel single-crystal x-ray spectropolarimeter that separates spatially the two perpendicularly polarized components of an x-ray beam. We have tested this device by using an x-ray tube, and confirmed its performance to be satisfactory as expected from its design.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
