Description

In this presentation, we report a femtosecond X-ray source using a laser-Compton scheme, which is an interaction between a relativistic electron beam and a high-intensity laser beam. The system is constructed of a picosecond electron beam source based on a linac with a photocathode RF gun and a 1-TW Ti: sapphire laser. The observed X-ray intensities were 3x104 photons/pulse with 280 fs(rms) pulse duration by 90deg interaction and 1.5x105 photons/pulse with 3 ps by 180deg interaction. (author)
