    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    We demonstrate a novel method to control hard x-ray emission by entangling x-ray photons with engineered ultraviolet surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs). This technique allows for tunable angular-spectral structuring of x-ray beams using nonlinear optics.
