Abstract
The main goal of the CUTE project is to facilitate the collaborative research towards theory, design, manufacture and experimental tests of high-quality periodically bent crystalline structures as well as theoretical and experimental studies of the radiation formed in crystalline undulators (CU). Strong electrostatic fields inside a crystal are able to steer the particles much more effectively than even the most advanced superconductive magnets. Hence, a crystal with periodically bent crystallographic planes forces particles to move along nearly sinusoidal trajectories and radiate electromagnetic waves in hard X ray and gamma ray frequency rangeI documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
