Abstract

Nowadays, the generation of narrow-bandwidth, high brightness, and tunable X-rays via laser-Compton scattering (LCS) is expected for many scientific and industrial applications. In this paper, we will show that the energy recovery linac (ERL)-based LCS X-ray source can be applied to an X-ray imaging of biological specimens.
