01 avr 09 Hybrid source: positrons distribution

(Robert Chehab’s graphic and summary)
In the following we took:

For both case (10 GeV and 5 GeV) the inital x and y electron distribution follow (ROOT syntax)

x=gRandom->Gaus(0,2.5e-3)/sqrt(2.); // gaussian centered x=0 with rms_x=2.5mm
y=gRandom->Gaus(0,2.5e-3)/sqrt(2.); // gaussian centered y=0 whith rms_y=2.5mm

Electron beam energy : 10 GeV

• Crystal thickness : 0.1 cm
• Distance between amorphous and amorphous : 2m
• Amorphous thickness : 0.8 cm

(initial particles impinging on the crystal = 5000 macro e-)

Positrons spatial distribution after capture section (AMD)

AMD caracteristics

Transverse phase space of the positrons from the target.
We apply a cut in the radius, r<20mm corresponding to the aperture of the
pre-accelerating cavities.

Electron beam energy : 5GeV

• Crystal thickness : 0.14 cm
• Distance between amorphous and amorphous : 2m
• Amorphous thickness : 1 cm
