The SPARC_LAB Thomson source is a compact X-rays source based on the Thomson backscattering process presently under its second phase of commissioning at LNF. The electron beam energy ranges between 30–150 MeV, the electrons collide head-on with the Ti:Sapphire FLAME laser pulse which energy ranges between 1–5 J with pulse lengths in the 25 fs-10 psec range, this provides an X-rays energy tunability in the range of 20–500 keV, with the further capability to generate strongly non-linear phenomena and to drive diffusion processes due to multiple and plural scattering effects. The experimental results on the obtained X-ray radiation are presented.

Abstract

The SPARC_LAB Thomson source is a compact X-rays source based on the Thomson backscattering process presently under its second phase of commissioning at LNF. The electron beam energy ranges between 30–150 MeV, the electrons collide head-on with the Ti:Sapphire FLAME laser pulse which energy ranges between 1–5 J with pulse lengths in the 25 fs-10 psec range, this provides an X-rays energy tunability in the range of 20–500 keV, with the further capability to generate strongly non-linear phenomena and to drive diffusion processes due to multiple and plural scattering effects. The experimental results on the obtained X-ray radiation are presented.
