X-ray radiation and optics investigations at the YerPhI linac test facility (LTF)

  • 1. Yerevan Physics Institute, Markarian St. 2, Yerevan 375036 (Armenia)

Description

The 20-40 MeV linac (LA-20-40) of the YerPhI LTF which is under construction will supply up to 1 mA average current beams for the following types of investigations: Isotope production and neutron physics; New methods of particle acceleration; X-ray radiation and optics. The latter are devoted to the methods of intense 1-35 keV X-ray beam production using radiation of channeling particles (ChR), parametric X-ray radiation (PXR) and resonant transition radiation (RTR) for scientific experiments, medical and technological applications. After short discussion of the existing problems a status report on the LA-20-40, equipment and future plans of X-ray beam production and optics investigations are presented.
