A 8 GeV electrons beam (composed by 1.1e+4 particles) impinge on a <111> oriented tungsten crystal of 1mm thickness.
For display reason a cut is apply on px and py value (abs(px&&py)<20 MeV/c).
The photons at the exit of the crystal is use to impinge on 8mm amorphous tungsten
(for 2.5mm rms value)
After the amorphous px,py and pz are defined by the following

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

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.
