Abstract: (Elsevier)
We discuss in detail our proposed [1,2] method of obtaining colliding γe and γγ beams with high energies and luminosities using the designed linear accelerators VLEPP and SLC with colliding e + e − beams at the energies 2 E ≳ 100 GeV. The intense γ beams are obtained by backward Compton scattering of laser light which is focused on the electron beams of these accelerators. This paper contains the scheme for conversion of an electron beam into a γ beam, a calculation of the conversion coefficient and of the total and spectral γe and γγ luminosities. To get the luminosity L γ e , L γγ ∼ L ee , one needs a laser flash with energy ∼ 15J, and a pulse duration ∼ 30 ps at a repetition rate of 10 or 180 Hz. Such parameters seem to be achievable on the basis of current technology.- ELECTRON POSITRON: LINEAR COLLIDER
