| Abstract | In an ILC positron source, multi-GeV electrons or multi-MeV photons impinge on a metal target. In either case, the incoming beam power is hundreds of kilowatts. Various computer programs - such as FLUKA or MARS - can calculate how the incoming beam showers in the target and can track the particle showers through the positron source system. The incoming energy ends up as heat in the various positron source elements. This paper presents results from such calculations and their impact on the design of a positron source for the ILC. |
