Description
Channeling radiation is an appealing radiation process to produce X-ray radiation with low energy electron beams. We plan to use our novel photo and field emission cathodes to generate very small emittance electron beams to make channeling radiation X-ray sources. In this contribution we discuss the anticipated performance and construction status of a channeling radiation experiment to produce ~2.5 keV radiation from a 4-MeV electron beam at Fermilab's High-Brightness Electron Source Lab (HBESL) and plans to produce X-ray (~100 keV) radiation at Fermilab's Advanced Superconducting Test Accelerator (ASTA).
