In this paper, we present the generalities of the Compton interaction process; we analyse the
different paradigms of Inverse Compton Sources, implemented or in commissioning phase …

Spectroscopy and imaging in the VUV–X-ray domain are very sensitive tools for the
investigation of the properties of matter [1],[2],[3]. Time-resolved studies enable to follow the …

The technological development in the field of high brightness linear accelerators and high
energy/high quality lasers enables today designing high brilliance Compton-X and Gamma …

We revisit the description of inverse Compton scattering sources and the photon beams
generated therein, emphasizing the behavior of their phase space density distributions and …

A hydrogen-filled capillary discharge waveguide operating at kHz repetition rates is
presented for parameters relevant to laser plasma acceleration (LPA). The discharge current …

A systematic study of the polarization of x-gamma rays produced in Thomson and Compton
scattering is presented, in both classical and quantum schemes. Numerical results and …

Thomson scattering sources with their hard x-ray pencil beams represent a promising
candidate to drive high-resolution X-ray Fluorescence Imaging (XFI). As XFI is a scanning …

Photon sources based on inverse Compton scattering, namely, the interaction between
relativistic electrons and laser photons, are emerging as quasimonochromatic energy …

We revisit the kinematics of Compton scattering (electron-photon interactions producing
electrons and photons in the exit channel) covering the full range of energy/momenta …

Laser pulses with peak power 0.3 PW were used to generate electron beams with energy> 4
GeV within a 9 cm-long capillary discharge waveguide operated with a plasma density of≈ …
