The positron source of the International Linear Collider is based on a superconducting helical undulator passed by the high-energy electron beam to generate photons which hit a conversion target. Since the photons are circularly polarized the resulting positron beam is polarized. At ILC250, the full undulator is needed to produce the required number of positrons. To keep the power deposition in the undulator walls below the acceptable limit of 1W/m, photon masks must be inserted in the undulator line. The photon mask design requires a detailed study of the power deposition in the walls and masks. This paper describes the power deposition in the undulator wall due to synchrotron radiation.

In the future, International Linear Collider (ILC), a helical undulator based polarized positron source is expected to be chosen. A high energy electron beam passes through a superconducting helical undulator in order to create circularly polarized photons which will be directed to a conversion target, the result of which, will be electron-positron pairs. The resulting positron beam is longitudinally polarized. In order to produce the required number of positrons in ILC250 the full undulator length is needed. Since the photons are created with an opening angle and traveling through a 320 m long undulator, it is expected that the superconducting undulator vacuum will be hit by the photons. Photon masks are needed to be inserted in the undulator line to keep the power deposition in the vacuum below the acceptable limit which is 1W/m. A detailed study of the power deposition in the vacuum and masks is needed in order to design the photon masks. This paper describes the power deposition in the undulator vacuum due to secondary particles assuming an ideal undulator. In addition, the mask model is proposed.
Since the undulator wall is being bombarded by photon produced in the ILC helical undulator, masks were installed inside the undulator to protect the superconducting undulator as well as the vacuum. The photon energy spectrum was used to calculate the incident power. HUSR software was used to simulate the photon energy spectrum per meter inside the undulator. The influence of adding masks inside the undulator on the photon polarisation and energy spectrum was also studied.
The design of the positron source for the International Linear Collider (ILC) is still under consideration. The baseline design plans to use the electron beam for the positron production before it goes to the IP. The high-energy electrons pass a long helical undulator and generate an intense circularly polarized photon beam which hits a thin conversion target to produce $e^+e^-$ pairs. The resulting positron beam is longitudinally polarized which provides an important benefit for precision physics analyses. In this paper the status of the design studies is presented with focus on ILC250. In particular, the target design and cooling as well as issues of the optical matching device are important for the positron yield. Some possibilities to optimize the system are discussed.

In this paper the status of the positron target design studies is presented. Focus is the positron yield for center-of-mass energies of 250 GeV and also the Z peak. Possibilities to improve the positron collection system and thus to increase the positron yield are discussed.
A new type of helical undulator based on redistribution of magnetic field of a solenoid by ferromagnetic helix has been proposed and studied both in theory and experiment. Such undulators are very simple and efficient for promising sources of coherent spontaneous THz undulator radiation from dense electron bunches formed in laser-driven photo-injectors.
