Schematics INJECTION OPTICS REMODERATOR STAGE FIRST ACCELERATOR DEFLECTOR
First accelerator - wide-angle electrostatic optics where slow positron beam is formed from Na 22 source coupled with 1 m W monocrystal
90 electrostatic spherical deflector - used to prevent high-energy positrons from the source reaching the target
Remoderator stage – second accelerator equiped with electron gun which allows in situ conditioning Cu remoderator film
Injection optics - formed by three aperture electrodes, in focusing conditions a weak longitudinal magnetic field is used, and guides positrons through 10 cm long scattering cell.
Beam modelling First accelerator (SIMION simulation) 30 V V V
Testing 1. Electrons (focusing effect of magnetic field)
1. Electrons (cross sections)
2. Positrons (focusing effect of magnetic field)
2. Positrons (pass - band of deflector)
2.4 eV Energy correction
