摘要: 激光具有高强度、 高极化度等优异的性能。 用激光束轰击高能电子束就可以产生高强度、 高极化度的γ射线束。 上海激光电子γ源就是上海同步辐射装置上的这样一条束线站。 预计可以获得能量范围为1—22 MeV的准单色、 高强度(109—1011 s-1)和高极化度(线极化或圆极化)的γ射线束。 介绍了这条束线站目前的进展情况。 Shanghai Laser Electron Gamma Source (SLEGS) is a highintensity,short pulse and compact γray source which is based on inverse Compton scattering via interaction between pulsed highpower laser beams and picosecond relativistic electron bunches. One of the attractive features of the laser Compton scattering is the easy control of polarization of the produced high energy photons that duplicates polarization of the applied laser beam. The γ ray with energy up to 22 MeV and intensity of 109—1011s 1 are expected to be produced by Compton backscattering of CO2 laser photons on the 3.5 GeV electrons bunches in the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF). In this communication, we report same simulation results and the progressing status of SLEGS.Abstract: Shanghai Laser Electron Gamma Source (SLEGS) is a highintensity, shortpulse and compact γray source which is based on inverse Compton scattering via interaction between pulsed highpower laser beams and picosecond relativistic electron bunches.
