The properties of coherent X-radiation CXR, generated in crystals by electrons in the tens of MeV energy range, were investigated theoretically. The analytical expressions for CXR spectralangular and angular cross sections were obtained with the use of small-angle multiple scattering approximation. Our theoretical results are in good agreement with experiment. The obtained results can be used in designing quasi-monochromatic, tunable and polarized X-radiation sources based on the CXR process.
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.
