论文摘要
对Lepton普遍性的高敏性研究以及对Lepton普遍性的高敏化研究,对未来的Leptonic Colleder和中微子工厂的基本挑战之一是设计和构建新的高强度来源的MUON和POSITRONS。下一代的来源应将目前运行的强度提高至少三个数量级,并包括产生纵向偏振链球的重要选择。到目前为止,实现这一目标的主要努力一直集中在质子束驱动的MUON来源和电子束驱动的正电子源上。在本文中,我们介绍了基于高强度兆瓦级光子梁的替代方案的探索性研究。此类梁将来可以通过Gamma Factory(GF)项目来交付。 GF多个目标之一是将当前运行光子源的能量范围(增加一个数量级)和强度(超过六个数量级)。可以通过将LHC的当前强子挑选器手术使用新的GF合作模式扩展,从而可以实现这种飞跃,从而使梁与激光脉冲的碰撞。本文介绍的探索性研究表明,这两个标志的10 $^{13} $ muons和10 $^{16} $电子/正电子每秒可以由GF来源产生。
One of the fundamental challenges for future leptonic colliders and neutrino factories as well as for high-sensitivity studies of lepton universality is to design and construct new high-intensity sources of muons and positrons. The next-generation sources should increase the intensity of the presently operating ones by at least three orders of magnitude and include an important option of producing longitudinally polarized leptons. The main effort to achieve this goal has been focused, so far, on the proton-beam-driven muon sources and electron-beam-driven positron sources. In this paper, we present exploratory studies of an alternative scheme which is based on high-intensity megawatt-class photon beams. Such beams could be delivered in the future by the Gamma Factory (GF) project. One of the GF multiple goals is to increase the energy range (by more than one order of magnitude) and the intensity (by more than six orders of magnitude) of presently operating photon sources. Such a leap can be achieved by extending the present hadron-collider modus operandi of the LHC with a new GF-operation-mode, allowing the collisions of beams with laser pulses. The exploratory studies presented in this paper demonstrate that more than 10$^{13}$ muons of both signs and more than 10$^{16}$ electrons/positrons per second can be produced by a GF source.
