Abstract
An analytical study of the geometrical properties of the X-ray diffraction applied to the case of Laue lenses is reported in this paper. The results of this investigation are analytical equations that describe the point in which a photon is diffracted as a function of the crystal position and of the X-ray source angular coordinates. In addition, the contributions to the lens Point Spread Function of each crystal is described, helping in understanding the optical properties of a Laue lens. The results obtained can be inserted in simulation and image deconvolution softwares for speeding up the calculations.
