The prospect of creation of the X-ray source with tunable wavelength on the base of a middle energy accelerator and mosaic crystals are analyzed. It is proved, that due to the contribution of diffracted bremsstrahlung, the mosaic crystals provide the essentially greater yield of hard radiation (w ≥...
