Coherent X-Radiation Excited by a Beam of Multiply Scattered Relativistic Electrons in a Single Crystal in the Bragg Scattering Geometry

Аннотация

A dynamic theory of coherent x-radiation emitted by a divergent beam of relativistic electrons traversing a thin single-crystal plate is developed which takes into account multiple scattering of the electrons on the target atoms. The case is considered in which the target is quite thin, so that it is not necessary to take absorption of radiation into account, but the electron path in the target is quite long, so that it is necessary to take multiple scattering into account. Expressions are obtained which describe the spectral–angular characteristics of parametric x-radiation and diffracted transient radiation under these conditions. Conditions are described under which diffracted bremsstrahlung radiation can be neglected. The possibility of manifesting the effects of dynamic diffraction is investigated.
