Energy dependence of the efficiency of high-energy negatively charged particle beam deflection by planar channeling in a bent crystal

Abstract

The study of planar channeling of high-energy negatively charged particles in bent crystals was carried out. The value of the critical radius of planar channeling in the Doyle–Turner approximation for the atomic potential is determined. The dependence of the maximum angle at which a given fraction of beam particles could be deflected by means of planar channeling in a bent crystal on the particle energy was found. We identified the ideal parameters for the exploitation of planar channeling for negatively charged particle beam deflection by planar channeling in a bent crystal at current and future high-energy accelerators, e.g., SLAC, MAMI, ILC or muon colliders.
