3. Photons(≈ 10 MeV ) Helical Undulator (≈ 100 m) Electrons (150 GeV) Polarised Positrons (≈ 5 MeV) Conversion Target (0.4X0 Ti) Photon Collimator Undulator-Based Positron Source for ILC • The ILC requires of order 1014 positrons / s to meet its luminosity requirements. • A factor ~60 greater than the ‘conventional’ SLC positron source. • Undulator based source  lower stresses in the production target(s) and less activation of the target station(s). • Collimating the circularly-polarised SR from the undulator leads to production of longitudinally-polarised positrons.

21. Depolarisation Processes Both stochastic spin diffusion through photon emission and classical spin precession in inhomogeneous magnetic fields can lead to depolarisation. 1 mrad orbital deflection  30° spin precession at 250GeV. Largest depolarisation effects are expected at the Interaction Points. Photon emission Spin precession
