Abstract

The recent new development of the theory and experiment of resonant transition radiation (RTR) produced by electrons with energies up to few tens MeV in multilayer nanostructures is reviewed. The already revealed properties of this type of soft x-ray RTR require new experimental studies which become possible due to the achievement in the technology of preparation superlattice radiators with layer thickness from few to few hundreds nanometers.
