LOW INTENSITY BEAMS OF ELECTRONS AND POSITRONS IN THE ENERGY RANGE UP TO 100 MeV AT IHEPNP FACILITY

The article considers possible characteristics of low-intensity secondary positron and electron beams, which can be obtained using an electron accelerator with energy of ~100 MeV and average current of some μA. Preliminary simulation shows that using a tungsten converter of 2X0 thick and collimation of secondary particles beam, such accelerator allows one to get electron and positron secondary beams with energy of ~ 5…70 MeV, intensity of ~10-6-8 from the primary electron beam intensity, and energy spread of about some percent. Such low-intensity beams can be used for researches in the field of interaction of radiation with amorphous ubstances and crystals, testing detectors and scintillation materials.
