Charge-neutral, GeV-scale electron-positron pair beams produced using bremsstrahlung gamma rays
Abstract Matter-antimatter plasmas, such as electron-positron pair plasmas, are frequently observed in various astrophysical phenomena. In laboratory settings, electron-positron pairs have often been generated using high-Z converters irradiated by either direct laser pulses or laser-driven electron...
