Polarization of the radiation scattered as a result of interaction of laser photons with relativistic electrons

  • 1. P. N. Lebedev Physics Institute, Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Moscow

Description

Theoretical calculations are made of the orthogonal-geometry interaction between electron and photon beams and experimental studies are reported of the polarization characteristics of the scattered radiation. Measurements were made using an automated system based on a Compton scintillation polarimeter. The results indicated that it should be possible to generate a polarized gamma-ray beam in the orthogonal geometry
