Abstract

The first results from a broad angular beam experiment on emission of high-energy photons from 170 GeV electrons and positrons are presented. The targets were 0.5 mm thick Si and Ge crystals. A dramatic enhancement in the emitted radiation is found for angles of incidence close to the 〈110〉 axis. The experimental results are compared to a constant-field cascade calculation.
