Novel proposal demonstrates low emittance muon beam production from positron collisions, suggesting new applications in particle physics.
Muon beams are customarily obtained via K=π decays produced in proton interaction on target. In this paper we investigate the possibility to produce low emittance muon beams from electron-positron collisions at centre-of-mass energy just above the μ^+ μ^- production threshold with maximal beam energy asymmetry, corresponding to a positron beam of about 45 GeV interacting on electrons on target. We present the main features of this scheme with an outline of the possible applications.
