Abstract
An illustrative history of channeling radiation is presented, from its discovery at Livermore in the late sixties to its more recent development at many laboratories around the world. This paper introduced this topic at the Workshop on Electron-Photon Interactions in Dense Media, held at Nor-Hamberd, Armenia, June 25–29, 2001. A sister paper given the following day illustrated the development of a number of applications of channeling radiation. Although reference is made here to a few of the results presented in this latter paper, many were shown by other speakers, and showing any appreciable number of them here is clearly beyond the purview of these Proceedings.
With many thanks to Professor W.C. Parke.
