Overview

A survey of theoretical and experimental progress in the area of electron-photon interaction and dense media. This volume discusses radiation production, with descriptions of ideas and technologies that enhance the production of X-rays in the form of channelling, transition and parametric X-ray production. Progress in electron beam physics to produce sub-picosecond electron bunches from low-energy linear accelerators make it possible to produce coherent, high brightness, submillimeter radiation and sub-picosecond X-ray pulses. Micro-undulators in the form of bent crystalline structures hold promise as future X-ray sources.
