The number of photons per MeV per incident electron per g/cm2 of radiator (Z,A) is given by [*]:

d2ndκdt=3.495×104Aκ[Z2Φn(Z,E0,k)+ZΦe(Z,E0,k)](MeV1g1cm2),

where κ - photon kinetic energy in MeV;

E0 - incident electron total energy (in units of the electron rest mass);

k - incident photon energy (in units of the electron rest mass);

Φe(Z,E0,k)=CB{2[12E3E0+(EE)2][Lη]+η[1L22ρ1ρ2(12L[ρ(ρ+2)(E0+1)E01]12)2]};

E=E0k;

ρ=E0k(1+E0E21);

η=ρ/(ρ+2);

L=2ln((E01)12+[η(E0+1)12](E01)12[η(E0+1)12])

CB=14ψ(ε)1lnZ233.798lnεlnZ23
