Parameters of Compton x-ray beams: Total yield and pulse duration

Closed analytical formulas describing the parameters of x rays, generated in Compton backscattering of laser pulse and electron beam, such as total yield and temporal duration of the x-ray pulse are presented. Despite the fact that maximal yield is attainable at the head-on collisions and the analyt...
