Channeling radiation is an appealing radiation process to produce x-ray radiation with low-energy electron beams. In this contribution we describe the anticipated performance and preliminary results from a channeling radiation experiment to produce ~ 1.2-keV radiation from a ~ 4-MeV electron beam at Fermilab's high-brightness electron source lab(HBESL). We also discuss plans to produce X-ray radiation ([10,80]-keV photon energy) at Fermilab's advanced superconducting test accelerator (ASTA).
