electrons are polarized,,,,,, choose helicity of its counter part

if unpolarized e+

a half of the beam is thrown away


electon beam is polarized but,,,,

polarization (either e- or e+) has to be well controlled

Positron polarization

Positron polarization helps much to :

increase luminosity effectively suppress background

physics is sensitive to the polarization

ILC: e+ Polarization from Beginning?

To use the e+ polarization for physics we strongly ask to provide a machine with flexible helicity reversal also for the positron beam

No or very rare reversal of e+ helicity could be worse than no e+ polarization

Positron Pol WG

Reminder: Positron Pol is important for numerous physics channels

•Gain in production rate•Reduction of Bckgrnd•Access to new channels

pros and consCompton

based positron polarization

• independent of main linac

• good capability of controlling polarization

•R& D issues•how to get enough intensity


Proof of Principle at KEK - ATF


To meet ILC requirements

Requirements for ILC

•2x1010/bunch•~3000 bunches/train•5Hz

ideas to meet requirement

•Single pass•Linac based

•Recycling e- and Lasers•e- Storage ring + optical cavity•Energy Recovery Linac(ERL) + optical cavity

•100 m long pulse stacking cavity surrounding the detector

~ polarized positron + gravitational wave

Summary Polartized Positron is useful and

preferable to be implemented at the early stage of the ILC

Laser-Compton scheme looks attractive

Many common efforts can be shared in various applications.
