Description
Electromagnetic processes of charged particles interaction with oriented crystals provide a wide variety of innovative applications such as beam steering, crystal-based extraction/collimation of leptons and hadrons in an accelerator, a fixed-target experiment on magnetic and electric dipole moment measurement, a positron source for lepton and muon colliders, X-ray and gamma radiation source for radiotherapy and nuclear physics as well as plasma acceleration in the crystal media. One of the main challenges is to develop an up-to-date, universal and fast simulation tool to simulate these applications.
We present a new simulation model capable to simulate both steering and radiation electromagnetic processes in oriented crystals implemented into the Geant4 simulation toolkit. We validate the model with the experimental data and benchmark it with other simulations*. We discuss the advantages and perspectives of this model for the applications of oriented crystals mentioned above.
