Accelerator Radiation Physics
Medium-energy accelerators are under investigation for production of
channeling radiation and coherent bremsstrahlung. These experiments require
tight controls on beam parameters (beam energy, current, emittance, spot
size). Radiation physicists from universities, other federal laboratories,
and companies in the Washington, DC area are participating in early work at
the MIRF to construct and characterize a beam-line for use in accelerator
physics studies. The completed MIRF accelerator physics beam line will offer
unique opportunities for studies in surface science, microlithography, and
medical diagnostics.
