Proposed setup for coherent Compton scattering.

Caption

An incident plane-wave laser is tuned by a diffractive optical part like grating or prism, and then being transformed into a tilted pulse laser. This tilted pulse is then focused by a sOAP mirror. A train of electron bunches interplay with the resulting focal line, producing high-intensity coherent Compton scattering.
