Abstract
A method includes simulating diffraction in a transmission geometry of relativistic electron bunches from a crystallographic structure of a crystal thereby simulating diffraction of the relativistic electron bunches into a plurality of Bragg peaks. The method includes selecting a range of angles between a direction of propagation of the relativistic electron bunches and a normal direction of crystal including an angle at which a diffraction portion is maximized. The method includes sequentially accelerating a plurality of physical electron bunches to relativistic energies toward a physical crystal having the crystallographic structure and diffracting the plurality of physical electron bunches off the physical crystal at different angles and measuring the diffraction portion into the respective Bragg peak at the different angles. The method includes selecting a final angle based on the measured diffraction portion into the respective Bragg peak at the different angles and generating a pulse of light.
