各向异性介质中电子散射的韧致辐射极化

Polarization of bremsstrahlung at electron scattering in an anisotropic medium

M. V. Bondarenco

摘要:

在某些横向动量转移是统计上优选的条件下,考虑了相对论电子的韧致辐射。结果表明,在偶极子近似下,所有的介质各向异性效应可以累积成一个特殊的模量约束横向矢量$\bm N$。为了用$N^2\sim1$模拟靶,我们计算了电子以小角度入射到定向晶体中原子排上的辐射。研究了$\bm N$为常数时,辐射强度和偏振态与发射角和频率的关系.角积分截面的净偏振进行评估,这似乎是成正比的$N^2/2$,并随着光子能量分数的增加而减少。辐射角分布的一个突出特征是存在一个角度,在该角度处,辐射可以被完全偏振,尽管目标完全或部分各向同性-这归因于在全微分辐射概率核中存在用于偏振的以原点为中心的切向圆。分析了利用偏振韧致辐射通量的各种性质制备偏振光子束和探测介质的本征各向异性的可能性。

英文摘要:

Bremsstrahlung from relativistic electrons is considered under conditions when some transverse direction of momentum transfer is statistically preferred. It is shown that in the dipole approximation all the medium anisotropy effects can be accumulated into a special modulus-bound transverse vector, $\bm N$. To exemplify a target with $N^2\sim1$, we calculate radiation from electron incident at a small angle on an atomic row in oriented crystal. Radiation intensity and polarization dependence on the emission angle and frequency for constant $\bm N$ is investigated. Net polarization for the angle-integral cross-section is evaluated, which appears to be proportional to $N^2/2$, and decreases with the increase of the photon energy fraction. A prominent feature of the radiation angular distribution is the existence of an angle at which the radiation may be completely polarized, in spite of the target complete or partial isotropy -- that owes to existence of an origin-centered tangential circle for polarization in the fully differential radiation probability kernel. Possibilities for utilizing various properties of the polarized bremsstrahlung flux for preparation of polarized photon beams and for probing intrinsic anisotropy of the medium are analyzed.
