Transition radiation in metal-metal multilayer nanostructures as a medical source of hard x-ray radiation
We show that a periodic metal-metal multilayer nanostructure can serve as an efficient source of hard x-ray transition radiation. Our research effort is aimed at developing an x-ray source for medical applications, which is based on using low-energy relativistic electrons. The approach toward choosing radiator-spacer couples for the generation of hard x-ray resonant transition radiation by few-...
متن کاملTransition radiation as a source of quasi-monochromatic X-rays
Transition radiation (TR) from ultrarelativistic particles is considered. It is shown that performing collimation of the TR from the periodic N-foil stack (parameters of which are selected in a appropriate manner) one obtains the spectrum of the TR which has a form of a peak position of which ω1 depends on the plasma frequency and the thickness of the radiator foils. The height and width of the...
متن کاملDesign of a Resonant Transition Radiation Source in the Soft X-ray Range
Resonant transition radiation (RTR) can be generated from multi-layer structures when they are driven by relativistic electron beams. In consideration of using the NSRRC 90 MeV photoinjector as driver, we examined the feasibility of generating narrow-band soft x-rays from various multi-layer structures. Based on analytical theory, the expected angular-spectral distribution and photon yield of t...
متن کاملDosimetry of Occupational Radiation around Panoramic X-ray Apparatus
Background: Panoramic imaging is one of the most common imaging methods in dentistry. Regarding the side-effects of ionizing radiation, it is necessary to survey different aspects and details of panoramic imaging. In this study, we compared the absorbed x-ray dose around two panoramic x-ray units: PM 2002 CC Proline (Planmeca, Helsinki, Finland) and Cranex Tome (Soredex, Helsinki, Finland).<br ...
متن کاملPrecision X-ray transition radiation detectors for cosmic rays
Precision transition radiation detectors (TRDs) can be an effective tool for determining the energy spectra of cosmic ray nuclei up to the energies of the knee. They offer unique measurement capabilities and embody design principles which are somewhat different from those of the threshold TRDs used in accelerator experiments. We will discuss some of the characteristics of these instruments, inc...
