We propose a design of a polarized positron source for linear colliders. The design is based on electron–positron pair creation from polarized γ-rays which are produced by Compton scattering of circularly polarized laser light off a high-energy electron beam. Polarized positrons are created from those γ-rays incident on a thin conversion target. A future linear collider of the TeV-energy region requires an extraordinary large number of positrons (∼1×1010positrons/bunch) in a multi-bunch time structure. To meet these requirements, our design employs a high-current, low-emittance electron beam of 5.8 GeV , 10 CO2lasers, and 200 laser–electron collision-points. At each collision point, a pair of specially designed parabolic mirrors is installed to achieve efficient head-on collisions. This system allows us to produce high-intensity polarized γ-rays, which effectively generate high-intensity polarized positrons with the magnitude of polarization greater than 50%.
