Abstract:
We present the dimensioning of a photon–photon collider based on conventional Compton gamma
sources for the observation of secondary cc production. Two symmetric electron beams in collision with
two high energy lasers produce two primary gamma rays pulses through Compton back scattering.
Tuning the energy of the system to the energy of the photon–photon cross section maximum, a flux of
secondary gamma photons is generated. The Monte Carlo code ‘Rate Of Scattering Events’ (ROSE) has
been developed adhoc for the counting of the QED events. The benchmark of the code for the
Compton scattering process is presented. Realistic numbers of the secondary gamma yield, referring to
existing or approved set-ups are presented.
