Characterization of relativistic electron–positron beams produced with laser-accelerated GeV electrons

Abstract The characterization of an electron–positron beam generated from the interaction of a multi-GeV electron beam with a lead plate is performed using GEANT4 simulations. The dependence of the positron beam size on driver electron beam energy and lead converter thickness is investigated in deta...
