Coherent and incoherent components of a synchrotron radiation spot produced by separate capillaries

摘要

We discuss soft-x-ray focusing properties of separate capillaries. It is shown that a nonnegligible fraction of the synchrotron radiation beam transmitted by the capillary is modal. Experimental and theoretical data are discussed to explain the superposition pattern of x rays in the focal plane due to the interference phenomena of electromagnetic radiation propagating through separate capillaries.
