Abstract

It is known that the linearly polarized photons can partly transform to circularly polarized ones via forward Compton scattering in a background such as the external magnetic field or noncommutative space time. Based on this fact we explore the effects of the NC-background on the scattering of a linearly polarized laser beam from an intense beam of charged leptons. We show that for a muon/electron beam flux εˉμ,e1012/1010TeVcm2sec1\bar\varepsilon_{\mu,e}\sim 10^{12}/10^{10}\,{\rm TeV}\,{\rm cm}^{-2}\,{\rm sec}^{-1} and a linearly polarized laser beam with energy k0k^0\sim 1 eV and average power Pˉlaser\bar{P}_{\rm laser}\simeq1 MW, the generation rate of circularly polarized photons is about RV104/secR_{_V} \sim 10^4/{\rm sec} for Noncommutative energy scale ΛNC10\Lambda_{\tiny{NC}}\sim 10TeV. This is fairly large and can grow for more intense beams in near future.
