Positrons Using The HRRL
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the veracity of a positron beam line using the quad triplet method to collect positrons produced when a 10 MeV electron beam impinges on a 1.25 mm thick Tungsten target.
Positron Beam Properties
Tungsten thickness
The optimal Tungsten target thickness to produce positrons using a 10 MeV incident electron beam appears to be 1.25 mm.
Positron Momentum and Phase space distribution
Assuming a 10 meV electron beam having a gaussian spot size with a
= 3mm.
