Positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) is a well-known technique for investigating the structural properties of materials. Because of the purity of the <math>2 \gamma</math> signal produced from the annihilation of positrons with atomic electrons, this technique is a very sensitive probe of material defects and constitutes an accurate method for the measurement of the momentum distribution of electrons. Nevertheless, the globally poor availability of intense positron beams at low energies (1-1000 keV) percludes efficient use of PAS. An MeV electron accelerator production of positrons, like that used in the PEPPo experiment, can easily provide two orders of magnitude greater beam intensities than the most powerful nuclear reactor based facility. Adding controlled and flexible polarization capabilities with the PEPPo technique at accelerator facilities, may constitute a technological breakthrough for PAS and help address the lack of low energy positron research facilities world-wide.

The efficient transfer of polarization from electrons to positrons (>80%) has been demonstrated by the PEPPo experiment and offers a new pathway to use low energy polarized electron beams (10-100 MeV) to promptly produce polarized positrons suitable for acceleration. A challenging aspect of the positron injector is the optimization required to achieve the desired beam characteristics, such as beam intensity, transverse emittance (size), bunch length and energy spread (longitudinal emittance) necessary and be well-mated to the accelerator design (e.g. 12 GeV CEBAF, LERF, JLEIC). A core activity of this sub-group is to evaluate the user requirements, accelerator integration and assess the merits and risks of different schemes appropriate for JLab, in order to summarize and recommend the R&D needed for a successful positron physics program.
