We investigate parametric X-ray radiation (PXR) under condition of the extremely asymmetric diffraction, when the ultra-relativistic electron bunch is moving in textit{vacuum} parallel to the crystal-vacuum interface, close to the crystal surface. This type of geometry coincides with the well known mechanism of generation of radiation, when the self-field of the particle beam interacts with the reflecting metal grating, namely the Smith-Purcell effect. We demonstrate that in this geometry the main contribution is given via a tail region of the beam distribution, which penetrates the crystal and X-rays are radiated along the normal to the crystal surface. We determine the electron beam characteristics, when this phenomenon can be observed. It is essential that in this geometry the majority of electrons does not undergo multiple scattering and consequently the characteristics of the particle beam are not changed, thus allowing the usage of the emitted X-rays for the purpose of non-destructive beam diagnostics, which can complement the traditional knife-edge method.

The intensity of Smith-Purcell radiation from metallic and dielectric gratings (silicon, silica) is compared in a frequency-domain simulation. The numerical model is discussed and verified with the Frank-Tamm formula for Cherenkov radiation. For 30 k eV electrons, rectangular dielectric gratings are less efficient than their metallic counterpart, by an order of magnitude for silicon, and two orders of magnitude for silica. For all gratings studied, radiation intensity oscillates with grating tooth height due to electromagnetic resonances in the grating. 3D and 2D numerical models are compared.
Coherent Smith-Purcell radiation generated by bunched electron beam in the lamellar metal and dielectric gratings in the millimeter wavelength range was compared theoretically and experimentally. For theoretical estimation a simple model suitable for both dielectric and metal gratings was developed. Experimental comparison was carried out using extracted bunched 6.1 MeV electron beam of the microtron at Nuclear Physics Institute (Tomsk Polytechnic University). Both theoretical estimations and experimental data showed the difference of the radiation characteristics from the lamellar metal and dielectric gratings. The radiation from the dielectric grating had peak structure not monotonic one and was more intense comparing with metal grating radiation in the wavelength less than coherent threshold. These differences may be useful for research and development of new compact monochromatic radiation sources in sub-THz and THz region.
Time evolution of the parametric X-Ray radiation, produced by a relativistic charged particle passing through a crystal, is studied. The most attention is given to the cases when the radiation lasts much longer (t_{PXR} ~0.1 ns) than the the time t_p of the particle flight through the crystal (t_p ~ 1 ps). It is shown that such long duration of the radiation makes possible the detailed experimental investigation of the complicated time structure of the parametric X-ray pulses, generated by electron bunches, which are available with modern acceleration facilities.

Unusual emission of light, called the unconventional Smith-Purcell radiation (uSPR) in this paper, was demonstrated from an electron traveling near a finite photonic crystal (PhC) at an ultra-relativistic velocity. This phenomenon is not related to t he accepted mechanism of the conventional SPR and arises because the evanescent light from the electron has such a small decay constant in the ultra-relativistic regime that it works practically as a plane-wave probe entering the PhC from one end. We analyze the dependence of the SPR spectrum on the velocity of electron and on the parity of excited photonic bands and show, for PhCs made up of a finite number of cylinders, that uSPR probes the photonic band structure very faithfully.
We investigate the radiation from a charge rotating around conductors with cylindrical symmetry. First the problem is considered with a charge rotating around a conducting cylinder immersed in a homogeneous medium. The surface charge and current dens ities induced on the cylinder surface are evaluated. A formula is derived for the spectral-angular density of the radiation intensity. In the second part, we study the radiation for a charge rotating around a diffraction grating on a cylindrical surface with metallic strips parallel to the cylinder axis. The effect of the grating on the radiation intensity is approximated by the surface currents induced on the strips by the field of the rotating charge. The expressions are derived for the electric and magnetic fields and for the angular density of the radiation intensity on a given harmonic. We show that the interference between the synchrotron and Smith-Purcell radiations may lead to interesting features. In particular, the behavior of the radiation intensity on large harmonics can be essentially different from that for a charge rotating in the vacuum or around a solid cylinder. Unlike to these limiting cases, for the geometry of diffraction grating the radiation intensity on higher harmonics does not vanish for small angles with respect to the cylinder axis. For given characteristics of the charge, by the choice of the parameters of the diffraction grating, one can have highly directional radiation near the normal to the plane of the charge rotation. With decreasing energy, the relative contribution of the synchrotron radiation decreases and the Smith-Purcell part is dominant.
