In the baseline design of the International Linear Collider (ILC) an undulator-based source is foreseen for the positron source in order to match the physics requirements. The recently chosen first energy stage with sqrt(s)=250 GeV requires…
It is shown that when a circular resonator is deformed in a nonintegrable way, a symmetry breaking of escaping rays occurs which can dramatically modulate the outgoing wave even for small perturbations. The underlying mechanism does not…
Next-generation, high-brilliance x-ray photon sources call for new x-ray optics. Here we demonstrate the feasibility of using monolithic diamond channel-cut crystals as high-heat-load, beam-multiplexing, narrow-band, mechanically-stable…
We measured a considerable increase of the emitted radiation by 120 GeV/c electrons in an axially oriented lead tungstate scintillator crystal, if compared to the case in which the sample was not aligned with the beam direction. This…
Entangled photons, generated by spontaneous parametric down-conversion from a second-order nonlinear crystal, present a rich potential for imaging and image-processing applications. Since this source is an example of a three-wave mixing…

The occurrence of scissors modes in crystals that have deformed ions in their cells has been predicted some time ago. The theoretical value of their energy is rather uncertain, however, ranging between 10 and a few tenths of eV, with the…
