  Compton backscattering at energy recovery linacs (ERLs) promise high flux, high energy x-ray sources in the future, made possible by high quality, high repetition rate electron beams produced by ERLs. CBETA, the Cornell-Brookhaven accelerator currently being commissioned at Cornell, is an SRF multi-turn ERL using Non-Scaling Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (NS-FFA) arcs. CBETA has high quality design parameters with an anticipated top energy of 150 MeV on the fourth pass. The expected parameters of a Compton source at CBETA include a top x-ray energy of over 400 keV with a flux on the order of 1012 ph/s. One particular application requiring a high energy, high flux source is spectroscopy in high energy atomic physics. In this paper, we present anticipated parameters and potential applications in science and engineering for this source.
