Inverse Compton scattering of coherent synchrotron radiation in an energy recovery linac

We propose inverse Compton scattering (ICS) of coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) from a relativistic short electron bunch in energy recovery linacs (ERL) as a high-flux subpicosecond x-ray and γ-ray source. An advantage of the CSR scheme over a conventional ICS source is that no external laser is...
