(em ittance + acceptance)

• any experiment typically measures the phase space parameters of some particle distribution, to some resolution

• the requirenments are met by designing for the phase space characteristics of the source, x-ray optics, and detector

• Questions: What is the current status of these elements in SR applications related to Medical and Biological Imaging? Are they optimal? Are new directions and technologies in sight?

Features of conventional coronary K-edge subtraction angiography (moderate resolution):• wiggler source to enable subject scanning in 1D• critical energy substantially lower than IK edge• operation on a high energy storage ring• crystal monochromator• integrated mega-facilities envisaged (Mezentsev et al, Wiedemann, Dix et al)

Possible areas of innovation• short-period insertion devices on compact rings (no harmonics)• single shot imaging (pulsed-mode sources?)• 2D e-beam and/or optical rastering• multilayer optics for harmonic suppression• new imaging techniques, advanced X-ray Optics• one major goal: smaller-scale, economical instruments

Spectral flux advantage of a short-period (u1) vs. long-period (u2) undulator

• for arbitrary fixed Ku1 ~ Ku2 u1 advantage u2 /u1

• certain technologies (for which u1<< u2) may also limit u1 to Lu1<< Lu2 and Iu1<< Iu2

• however, in that limit factor II above can compensate these factors and reduction in machine energy can be correspondingly enormous.

Spectral flux advantage of a short-period undulator vs. a wiggler (assume Ku < 0.75)

• if the technology limits Bu ~ Bw then the possibility of making Lw >> Lu can limit the short-period advantage

• radiation-field or pulsed-current technologies may allow Bu to exceed the Bw (of conventional wigglers) by orders of magnitude • a promising technology of the former type appears to be the focused-laser undulator (Bu kT Ku 0.1-1)

KIPT X-RAY GENERATOR RANGE OF FLUX PERFORMANCE vis-a-vis SPEAR

(The chart at left compares the spectral flux performance of SPEAR vs. the present design of NESTOR. However, NESTOR’s photon energy(~180 keV) is ~21 times greater than SPEAR’s.. Thus, if the ordinate’s units were changed to energy flux the performance markers for NESTOR would need to be shifted upward by more than one decade.

SUMMARY

• molecular imaging and other frontier applications with nm or sub-nm resolution requirements will require LCLS or other ultra- low emittance 4G SR machines, insertion devices, and optics

• high resolution imaging or structural studies of crystals may be well- matched to short period undulators on low energy storage rings - if augmented with suitable optics

• moderate or low-resolution applications such as coronary angiography are likely to benefit strongly from the development of short- period undulator technology, in particular laser-field undulators.

• pulsed-mode operation of machine and insertion device may allow performance parameters and imaging modes unattainable in steady-state operation

• the development of unconventional techniques such as SXI will require corresponding innovations in optical, machine, and insertion device technologies
