X-ray photons produced from a plasma-cathode electron beam for radiation biology applications
A compact low-energy and high-intensity X-ray source for radiation biology applications is presented. A laser-induced plasma moves inside a 30 kV diode and produces a beam of 10$^{14}$ electrons at the anode location. An aluminum foil converts a part of the energy of these electrons into X-ray photons which are characterized using filtered imaging plates. The dose that would be deposited by these X-ray photons in C. elegans larvae is calculated from Geant4 simulations. It can be set to a value ranging between 10 $\mu$Gy and 10 mGy per laser shot by simply changing the aluminum foil thickness and the diode voltage. Therefore, this versatile and compact X-ray source opens a new path to explore the radiation effects induced by dose rates varying over several orders of magnitude.
