Production of Entangled X-Ray Photon Pairs by High Energy Electrons
arXiv:0906.4830
Abstract
Without developing a correct theory, the rate of the production of entangled photon pairs in the X-ray region by high energy electrons is estimated for experimental parameters used in a few experiments on X-ray parametric down conversion. Taking into account the need for X-ray entangled X-ray photons, it is proposed to begin the experimental study of such mechanism of nonlinear X-ray optics before the launch of the X-ray free electron lasers.
