Abstract

Parametric x-ray radiation (PXR) from a mosaic pyrolytic graphite crystal is studied using a 5.7 MeV electron beam. The first-order [002[ PXR reflection is detected in the Bragg angle, with the emitted photon energies peaking around 8 MeV. The detection angle Θ_D=2Θ _B=27° with respect to the e-beam, where Θ_B is the Bragg angle. The target is 0.3 mm thick, and the PXR spectra are measured for different tilt angles between the target and the e-beam direction.
