  ILC (International Linear Collider) is a next high-energy physics project to study the Higgs property as detail as possible and new phenomena beyond standard model. In ILC, the positron beam is produced by converting gamma rays from undulator radiations. To obtain gamma rays as undulator radiation, the electron beam for collision (150 GeV or more) is used. This positron generation scheme is a totally new approach. From project point of view, it is desirable to have a technical backup as a replacement of the undulator scheme. We propose an ILC positron source based on the conventional electron driven scheme. In this scheme, positron beam is generated from electromagnetic shower in a heavy target material where electron beam is injected. By manipulating the beam time structure to relax the heat load on the production target, the scheme can be feasible technically. In this study, positron capture in the electron driven scheme is simulated from the positron production to the positron damping ring, to demonstrate that an enough amount of positron can be generated and captured with a controllable heat load on the target.

  New BINP injector complex VEPP-5 consist of S-band linear accelerators (270 and 420MeV), positron converter (at 270 MeV) and damping ring. The injector complex will provide e+/e particles for the 2 colliders at BINP - VEPP-4M and VEPP-2000. After a long construction period the injector is in its commissioning stage now. Positron rate production of 6·108 positrons/pulse and conversion yield of 0.14/GeV and stored positron beam current of 70mA were already achieved.
