Transition radiation spectra from randomly spaced interfaces

Spectra of X-ray transition radiation (XTR) were measured, which were emitted in the passage of relativistic electrons through different samples of polyethylene foam. Based on the good agreement with absolute theoretical predictions, possible TR detectors are optimized for the Lorentz factor gamma /...

description Spectra of X-ray transition radiation (XTR) were measured, which were emitted in the passage of relativistic electrons through different samples of polyethylene foam. Based on the good agreement with absolute theoretical predictions, possible TR detectors are optimized for the Lorentz factor gamma /sub L/ range gamma /sub L/=200-1000. Such radiators are predicted to offer useful discrimination between pions, kaons and protons with momenta above 100 GeV/c. (12 refs).
