5. Polarized positrons at linear colliders The >150 GeV electron beam itself is used for the production of polarized positrons The >150 GeV electron beam itself is used for the production of polarized positrons Electron beam passes a 200m helical undulator (50% surplus) Electron beam passes a 200m helical undulator (50% surplus) After conversion, the positrons are captured and accelerated After conversion, the positrons are captured and accelerated They collide with a subsequent bunch train They collide with a subsequent bunch train

6. E-166 Experiment E-166 is a demonstration of undulator-based production of polarized positrons for linear colliders: - Photons are produced in the same energy range and polarization characteristics as for a linear collider; -The same target thickness and material are used as in the linear collider; -The polarization of the produced positrons is expected to be in the same range as in a linear collider. -The simulation tools are the same as those being used to design the polarized positron system for a linear collider. - However, the intensity per pulse is low by a factor of 2000.
