Parametric down conversion of X-ray photons

Parametric down conversion of X-ray photons in diamond crystals was detected in two experiments, both using the phase-matching scheme first employed in the X-ray regime by Eisenberger & McCall [Phys. Rev. Lett. (1971), 26, 684-688]. The conversion events were detected by a combination of time-co...

Description
Résumé:Parametric down conversion of X-ray photons in diamond crystals was detected in two experiments, both using the phase-matching scheme first employed in the X-ray regime by Eisenberger & McCall [Phys. Rev. Lett. (1971), 26, 684-688]. The conversion events were detected by a combination of time-correlation spectroscopy and energy discrimination, using Si drift-chamber detectors. The time-correlation spectra give a direct comparison of the conversion rate over the accidental coincidence rate. Mechanisms for possible detection of false events and ways to cross check against them are discussed in detail
