Abstract

At measurements of the spectra of intense gamma radiation produced by ultrarelativistic electrons in periodic structures, pileup of arrivals to the detector of several photons from one electron can cause significant deviations of the measured spectrum from the classically evaluated one. The description of experiments then requires summation of all multiphoton contributions. We describe the corresponding resummation procedure for the photon spectral intensity, as well as for the photon multiplicity spectrum, and apply it to the study of radiation spectra with a mix of coherent and incoherent contributions. The impact of multiphoton effects on the radiation spectrum shape is investigated. The limit of high photon multiplicity for the coherent part of the radiation is explored in detail. A method for reconstruction of the underlying single-photon spectrum from the multiphoton one is formulated.
