چکیده
Abstract Plasma-based positron sources are attracting significant attention from the research community, thanks to their rather unique characteristics, which include broad energy tuneability and ultra-short duration, obtainable in a compact relatively inexpensive setup. Here, we show detailed numerical study of beam characteristics at dedicated user target areas proposed for EuPRAXIA facility, first plasma-based particle accelerator be built as facility applications. It will shown that MeV-scale beams with properties industrial material science applications can produced, alongside GeV-scale suitable fundamental physics.

Novel Designs for Undulator Based Positron Sources
At least three proposed future colliders (ILC, CLiC and LHeC) require a positron source with a yield greater than 10 e+s−1. An undulator-based positron source has the potential to provide the required yield. This design generates gamma rays by using a high energy electron beam traveling through a superconducting helical undulator. The gamma rays then pair produce in a titanium alloy target to p...
متن کاملUltrarelativistic Electron-Positron Plasma
Ultrarelativistic electron-positron plasmas can be produced in high-intensity laser fields and play a role in various astrophysical situations. Their properties can be calculated using QED at finite temperature. Here we will use perturbative QED at finite temperature for calculating various important properties, such as the equation of state, dispersion relations of collective plasma modes of p...
متن کاملRadiation sources based on laser-plasma interactions.
Plasma waves excited by intense laser beams can be harnessed to produce femtosecond duration bunches of electrons with relativistic energies. The very large electrostatic forces of plasma density wakes trailing behind an intense laser pulse provide field potentials capable of accelerating charged particles to high energies over very short distances, as high as 1GeV in a few millimetres. The sho...
متن کاملA Laser-cooled Positron Plasma
We present results on trapping and cooling of positrons in a Penning trap. Positrons from a 2 mCi Na source travel along the axis of a 6 T magnet and through the trap after which they strike a Cu reflection moderator crystal. Up to a few thousand positrons are trapped and lose energy through Coulomb collisions (sympathetic cooling) with laser-cooled Be. By imaging the Be laser-induced fluoresce...
متن کاملErl Parameters for Compton Polarized Positron Sources
One of the main challenges for also future linear colliders projects (ILC and CLIC) is to provide an efficient positron source that takes into account the constraint imposed by the target heating in the pair production. At present, different schemes have been proposed to produce high energy gammas to be converted in e-e pairs into an amorphous target [1,2,3]. One of them considers the possibili...
