| Title | Quasiclassical Computations of Compton-Scattered Spectra | ||||
| Abstract | Quality X-ray sources are crucial to fundamental physics research, medical radiology, humanities research, and materials science. While synchrotron radiation (SR) facilities produce the state-of-the-art emissions with respect to brilliance and frequency tunability, the great expense required to build, maintain, and operate these structures greatly limits their accessibility to researchers. Much of the research conducted at SR facilities, however, may be conducted with inverse Compton sources (ICS). Accelerator-based Compton scattering light sources generate high-energy, high-brilliance emissions. Compton scattering is the process by which a photon scatters o? an electron. ICS offer an affordable, in-lab alternative to SR facilities. Even though SR facilities produce greater intensity emissions, Compton sources provide the same frequency tunability at the intensities suitable for the purposes of many researchers currently fighting for time at SR facilities, i.e., ICS provides intensiti | ||||
