Modification of the theory of diffracted channeling radiation for axial electron and positron channeling

A new type of combinational channeling radiation induced by subbarrier (interband) transitions for the transverse motion of relativistic electrons (positrons) is studied. It is known as diffracted channeling radiation (DCR). The formula describing the DCR angular distribution in the case of axial channeling is obtained by taking into account the band structure of energy levels for the transverse motion of electrons (positrons). It is shown that, in the two-wave approximation of the wave function A(r) of virtual photons, the DCR matrix elements in the dipole approximation for axial and plane channeling coincide formally (with the dimension of the problem taken into account). However, the formulas for DCR angular distributions in the cases of axial and plane channeling differ considerably.
