Abstract
Present availability of high brilliance photon beams in combination with intense TeV hadron beams makes it possible to conceive the generation of low emittance TeV-class energy pion/muon beams via photoproduction in a highly relativistic Lorentz boosted frame. We analyze the secondary beams brightness achievable by the coupling of advanced high efficiency high repetition rate FEL pulses and Large Hadron Collider or Future Circular Collider hadron beams. The phase space distributions of the pion and muon beams are obtained by means of an event generator code and the characteristics, such as emittance and energy spread, are benchmarked against analytical expressions.
