Description

The polarization of the final electron for the nonlinear Compton effect in a filed of a circularly polarized electromagnetic wave is considered. The complete set of formulas necessary for simulation of the e → γ conversion at future photon colliders is given. We note the possibility to transform the longitudinal polarization of the initial electron into transverse polarization of the final electron. (author)
