ABSTRACT:
A passive optical resonator stores optical pulses within a cavity to increase the optical power level of input pulses via resonant reflections without the use of an internal optical gain medium. In one embodiment for a Compton backscattering system, the optical resonator is a passive high finesse optical resonator that includes a mirror that is transmissive to x-rays.
