Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2461332A1] The arrangement has an X-ray source (2) comprising a brilliant X-ray point source (4), and a beam-conditioning X-ray optics comprising an X-ray optical element (3) for conditioning X-ray radiation emitted by the point source. An X-ray beam is rendered parallel in a direction perpendicular to a beam propagation direction, and remains divergent in a direction perpendicular to the beam propagation direction. The X-ray optical element comprises a Kirkpatrick-Baez mirror arrangement or a Montel mirror system, and is rotated around an axis of the beam propagation direction.
