1 online resource (xviii, 476 pages) :, This first book to cover in-depth the generation of x-rays in particle accelerators focuses on electron beams produced by means of the novel Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) technology. The resulting highly brilliant x-rays are at the centre of this monograph, which continues where other books on the market stop. Written primarily for general, high energy and radiation physicists, the systematic treatment adopted by the work makes it equally suitable as an advanced textbook for young researchers, Includes bibliographical references and index, Cover -- TOC36;Contents -- Preface -- CH36;1 Beams of Electrons or Photons -- 146;1 Preview -- 146;2 Coordinate Definitions -- 146;3 One45;dimensional Transverse Propagation Equations -- 146;4 Transfer Matrices for Simple Elements -- 146;446;1 Drift Space -- 146;446;2 Thin Lens -- 146;446;3 Thick Lens -- 146;446;4 Erect Quadrupole Lens -- 146;5 Elliptical 40;in Phase Space41; Beams -- 146;6 Beam Envelope E40;s41; -- 146;7 Gaussian Beams58; their Variances and Covariances -- 146;8 Pseudoharmonic Trajectory Description -- 146;9 Transfer Matrix Parametrization -- 146;10 Reconciliation of Beam and Lattice Parameters -- 146;1046;1 Beam Evolution Through a Drift Section -- 146;1046;2 Beam Evolution Through a Thin Lens -- References -- CH36;2 Beams Treated as Waves -- 246;1 Preview -- 246;2 Scalar Wave Equation -- 246;3 The Short Wavelength44; Geometric Optics Limit -- 246;346;1 Determination of Rays from Wavefronts -- 246;346;2 The Ray Equation in Geometric Optics -- 246;346;3 Obtaining Phase Information from Intensity Measurement -- 246;4 Wave Description of Gaussian Beams -- 246;446;1 Gaussian Beam in a Focusing Medium -- 246;446;2 Spatial Dependence of a Wave Near a Free Space Focus -- 246;446;3 The ABCD Law -- 246;446;4 Optics Using Mirrors -- 246;446;5 Wave Particle Duality for Electrons -- 246;5 Synchrotron Radiation58; Waves or Particles63; -- 246;6 X45;ray Holography and Phase Contrast and…
