Multiphoton emission of x-rays from cooperative resonant nuclei

The advent of x-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) has opened the door to exploring the x-ray-nuclei interaction in the multiexcitation regime. Here, we show the dependence of emission properties of x-ray photons from an ensemble of identical resonant nuclei on the number of excitations in the system,...

Description
Summary:The advent of x-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) has opened the door to exploring the x-ray-nuclei interaction in the multiexcitation regime. Here, we show the dependence of emission properties of x-ray photons from an ensemble of identical resonant nuclei on the number of excitations in the system, employing the theoretical methods we have introduced. Under the multiexcitation condition, the detection of x-ray quanta is emission-order selective. Our work presents an efficient approach to investigating the multiphoton emission of x-rays from cooperative resonant nuclei within and beyond weak-excitation regimes, offering valuable insights into nonlinear x-ray optics and many-body nuclear physics.
