Abstract

Electromagnetic radiation emitted by ultrarelativistic volume-reflected and multi-volume-reflected electrons in a bent crystal is very intense and takes place over a broad angular range of the incident beam. Such radiation results to be nearly independent from the particles trajectory and charge. This paper describes the possible applications these features allow, from the production of a gamma or a positron source to the crystal-assisted collimation of future linear e+/e- colliders and crystal-based electromagnetic calorimeters.
