Spectral Brilliance of Parametric X-rays at the FAST facility

Accelerator Physics 2015-06-23 v1

Abstract

We discuss the generation of parametric X-rays in the new photoinjector at the FAST (Fermilab Accelerator Science and Technology) facility in Fermilab. These experiments will be conducted in addition to channeling X-ray radiation experiments. The low emittance electron beam makes this facility a promising source for creating brilliant X-rays. We discuss the theoretical model and present detailed calculations of the intensity spectrum, energy and angular widths and spectral brilliance under different conditions. We also report on expected results with parametric X-rays generated while under channeling conditions.
