A muon source based on planar channelling radiation
The usage of channelling radiation arising from a high energy electron beam traversing a crystal for the production of an intense low emittance muon beam is investigated. The optimal energy and divergence of the electron beam are computed for few crystal types based on analytical expressions of the...

| description | The usage of channelling radiation arising from a high energy electron beam traversing a crystal for the production of an intense low emittance muon beam is investigated. The optimal energy and divergence of the electron beam are computed for few crystal types based on analytical expressions of the radiation spectrum and of the muon pair production cross section. It is shown that the required beam properties seem within reach and that the source performance may be comparable to other muon sources currently considered. |
