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 present a novel way to fit solar flare X-ray spectra that offers more sensitivity to physical flare parameters than traditional approaches to spectroscopy. We decouple physically distinct emission types in solar flare X-ray spectra using…
The parallel operation of multiple undulator lines with a wide spectral range is an important way to increase the efficiency of x-ray free electron laser (XFEL) facilities, especially for machines with high-repetition-rate. In this paper, a…
The objective of this article is to study the behavior of electromagnetic field under X-ray diffraction by time-dependent deformed crystals. Derived system of differential equations looks like the Takagi equations in the case of…

In this paper, we propose an x-ray fluorescence imaging system for elemental analysis. The key idea is what we call "x-ray fluorescence sectioning". Specifically, a slit collimator in front of an x-ray tube is used to shape x-rays into a…
X-ray free-electron lasers (FEL) deliver ultrabright X-ray pulses, but not the sequences of phase-coherent pulses required for time-domain interferometry and control of quantum states. For conventional split-and-delay schemes to produce…
X-ray diffraction was demonstrated from shock-compressed polycrystalline metal on nanosecond time scales. Laser ablation was used to induce shock waves in polycrystalline foils of Be, 25 to 125 microns thick. A second laser pulse was used…
