Background from undulator in the proposed experiment with polarized positrons
- SLAC
In the proposed E-166 experiment, 50 GeV electrons pass through helical undulator, and produce circularly polarized photons, which interact with a target and generate longitudinally polarized positrons. The background is an issue for a considered experiment. GEANT3 simulations were performed to model production of secondary particles from high-energy electrons hitting an undulator. The energy density of generated photons at the target was analyzed. Results of the simulations are presented and discussed.
