Abstract
A high-brilliance (â¼1022 photon sâ1 mmâ2 mradâ2/0.1%) gamma-ray source experiment is currently being planned at Fermilab (Eγâ1.1 MeV). The source implements a high-repetition-rate inverse Compton scattering by colliding electron bunches formed in a â¼300-MeV superconducting linac with a high-intensity laser pulse. This paper describes the design rationale along with some of technical challenges associated to producing high-repetition-rate collision. The expected performances of the gamma-ray source are also presented.
