Abstract

The divergence characteristics of intense quasi-parallel X-ray microbeams have been studied at the output of the “microfocus X-ray generator-cylindrical polycapillary structure” system by scanning the beam with a knife edge. It us established that the total microbeam divergence decreases in the region near the output edge of the polycapillary structure (divergence quasi-decrease effect).
