From spectral and geometrical properties of the resonating electric field
of the crystal to Stokes parameters of the characteristic X-ray radiation
The elliptic character of the resonating in-crystal
electric field in the rest frame of the trajectory
defined propagating ion under planar channeling
is the origin of variability of polarization properties
of the produced X-ray radiation.
But channeling is not a pre-requisite for resonant
coherent excitation !

2D RCE versus 3D RCE ?
Conceptually, 2D- and 3D- measurements complement each other in current RCE studies,
e.g.:
a)
exciting harmonic separation – clear advantage for 3D RCE; here, contrary to the 2D RCE case,
each resonating harmonic is characterized not only by its frequency ω klmbut also by its well defined
wave vector Kklm with |Kkl|m| not equal, generally, to ωklm;
a)
sensitivity to other, besides the oscillating electric field, intrinsic properties of the matter of ion
propagation, – clear advantage for 2D RCE; the profile and splitting of the resonances are here under
influence of the collective Lindhard potential of the crystal lattice (take an example of RCE of ionic
autoionizing states).
Common experimental difficulties and theoretical problems
in both cases of 2D RCE and 3D RCE studies:
a)
in the experiment – tuning to resonance harmonic;
b)
in the theory - unified description of both coherent and incoherent (relaxation)
ion-crystal interactions.

Swift ion in matter is an open quantum system; key point of the
density-matrix RCE approach is in the unified time-dependent
description of both coherent and incoherent ion-crystal interactions
General scheme of our
density-matrix approach
As soon as the in-crystal
electric field is known and
wave functions of the free
ion are chosen, one takes
standard quantum mechanics
to calculate matrix elements
Vpq(t) . The incoherence
parameters such as electron
loss and collision induced
level-to-level transition cross
sections are calculated or
taken from tables.
The equations are solved
numerically.Their solutions
are transformed into RCE
observables. When dealing
with those related to
polarization and angular
correlation RCE phenomena,
another aspect of the density
matrix technique – statistical
tensor calculations – is used
throughout.

Conclusion
1. Made 45 years ago Okorokov’s prediction on resonant coherent excitation of fast ions in
crystals, famous S.Datz’s experiments united RCE with physics of highly charged ions and, now, the
breadth and irresistible appeal of current research in this area by the Tokyo RCE collaboration – all this
shows the process of resonant coherent excitation of fast highly charged ions in crystals as a real model for
future XFEL studies in the keV range. Its basic parameters in current experimental and theoretical works
(the produced photon energy, intensity of the X-ray radiation energy flux in the ion rest frame) look close
to those usually related to XFELs. Even of not less importance is the unique feature of RCE as a tunable
source of polarized X-ray radiation. True, RCE will never compete with lasers in whole. But the wide
experience gained in experimental and theoretical RCE studies, especially concerning polarization and
angular correlation aspects of the dynamics of various multi-photon processes in keV energy region, will be
a strong support among others for future XFEL experiments.
2. The variety of combinations of the frequency ranges between two partners in typical twocolor RCE processes – from almost equal to each other keV photons at two-step excitation of ionic
autoionizing states to the opposite strongly asymmetric case of soft, of some eV, pumping radiation
combined with probing X-ray radiation of several keV in the Autler-Townes RCE investigations – suggests
a real landmark for theoretical, experimental and, perhaps primarily, engineering work in preparing
concrete XFEL devices in the keV range.
3. On the other hand, a lot of studies must be done in the nearest future for further
development of the RCE methods themselves, as concerns their both fundamental aspects and possible
practical application.
Thank you!
