Since
the middle of the last century, Frascati?s National Laboratories (LNF)
of INFN is well known in the world for pioneering research in the particle
interaction and synchrotron radiation physics fields. Good experience
in designing accelerators, storage rings and beamlines for synchrotron
radiation allows today LNF to be at the frontier of new X-ray generation
sources, as FELs. This report is an introduction to new research activity
?Coherent Scattering Phenomena for Radiations in Solids? started in
Frascati within the approved SPARC & SPARX projects. The main idea
of the projects is developing a research area to study the channeling
phenomena for charged and neutral particles in periodic solid structures.
The ?Channeling 2004? workshop organized by LNF in November 2004, has
shown a strong interest in the international collaboration, and the
Advisory Committee of the meeting together with the INFN LNF administration
have decided to organize an international conference ?Channeling 2006?
in June 2006.
