We present a capture concept for the continuous wave (CW) polarized positron injector for the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) at Jefferson Lab (Ce+BAF). This two-step concept is based on (1) the generation of bremsstrahlung radiation by a longitudinally polarized electron beam 1 mA, 120 MeV, 90% polarization), passing through a tungsten target, and (2) the production of e+e--pairs by these bremsstrahlung photons in the same target. To provide highly-polarized positron beams (>60% polarization) or high-current positron beams (>1 µA) with low polarization for nuclear physics experiments, the positron source requires a flexible capture system with an adjustable energy selection band. The results of beam dynamics simulations and calculations of the power deposited in the positron capture section are presented.
