Abstract

A dynamic theory of coherent X-ray radiation from relativistic electrons traversing a finite-thickness target made of a periodic layered medium with three layers per period in Laue scattering geometry is developed. Expressions describing the spectral-angular densities of parametric X-ray radiation and diffracted transition radiation are derived. It is shown that changing the ratio of the real parts of the dielectric susceptibilities of the layer materials and changing the ratio of the layer thicknesses significantly affects the spectral-angular characteristics of the coherent X-ray emission. It is established that,
under certain conditions, weakening of photoabsorption within the second layer of the multilayer medium period leads to a noticeable increase in the radiation densities differentiated by frequencies and propagation directions.
