Potylitsyn, Tomsk Polytechnic University, Tomsk, Russia Features 7 Offers a unified description of electromagnetic radiation in periodic structures, both theory and experiments 7 Discusses radiation generated in periodic structures in detail, plus diffraction radiation from relativistic electrons 7 Presents Smith-Purcell radiation, radiation of fast electrons in laser flash fields, and polarization radiation excited by the Coulomb field of incident particles 7 Provides in-depth information on diffraction radiation from relativistic electrons Periodic magnetic structures (undulators) are widely used in accelerators to generate mono- chromatic undulator radiation (UR) in the range from far infrared to the hard X-ray region. Another periodic crystalline structure is used to produce quasimonochromatic polarized photon beams via the coherent bremsstrahlung mechanism (CBS). Due to such characteris- 2011. 250 p. 150 illus.
