  abstract     = {{We propose a novel architecture for a mid-IR, high-repetition, kilowatt-class, CO₂ laser system operating in a pulse-burst regime and its implementation in In-verse Compton Scattering (ICS) sources of x-ray and gamma-ray radiation. Different types of particle accelerators are considered for conversion to such ICS sources, including energy recovery linacs and synchrotron storage rings. The expected ICS performance parameters are compared with earlier proposals where CBETA and DAΦNE accelerators have been paired with near-IR, mode-locked solid-state lasers operating at a multi-megahertz repetition rate. A considerable increase in acting laser energy attainable in our CO₂ laser-based scheme, combined with an order of magnitude higher number of laser photons per Joule of energy allows maintaining a similarly high average flux of produced hard x-rays while the peak flux and brilliance will be raised by three to four orders of magnitude compared to aforementioned schemes based on near-IR lasers.}},
