Abstract
Insert your english abstract here.A new versatile facility LEETECH for detector R&D, tests and calibration is designed and constructed. It uses electrons produced by the photoinjector PHIL at LAL, Orsay and provides a powerful tool for wide range R&D studies of different detector concepts delivering “monochromatic” samples of low energy electrons with adjustable energy and intensity. Among other innovative instrumentation techniques, LEETECH will be used for testing various gaseous tracking detectors and studying new Micromegas/InGrid concept which has very promising characteristics of spatial resolution and can be a good candidate for particle tracking and identification. In this paper the importance and expected characteristics of such facility based on detailed simulation studies are addressed.

Development of new high-energy physics collider experiments calls for a rapid evolution of already established and development of new innovative detector techniques
In this article we describe the design and simulation of versatile source of electrons with adjustable bunch intensity and particles energy, LEETECH (Low Energy Electron TECHnique)
LEETECH will be useful for the tests of Micromegas/InGrid technique [1] – the micro-pattern gaseous detector with pixel readout electronics, which provides 3D coordinate measurement and has a performance approaching that of silicon detectors
Summary
Development of new high-energy physics collider experiments calls for a rapid evolution of already established and development of new innovative detector techniques. Test beams are usually obtained from big and expensive accelerator facilities with high energies between tens of MeV and 800 GeV [4,5,6,7,8] Operational cost of these test platforms are quite high and user time is deficient. Such an important combination of beam characteristics as small time (tens of picoseconds) and energy spread (down to 1%), possibility to precisely adjust energy and reduced operational costs is highly required. LEETECH facility delivering electron samples of low and adjustable energy, variable intensity in the sample, with precise timing and small energy spread, accessible and having reduced operational costs, finds its place as a test facility for large variety of detector techniques
