The Main Injector Particle Physics Experiment (mipp Fnal E-907) at Fermilab -status and Plans
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe the status of the Main Injector particle production Experiment (MIPP) at Fermilab which has to date acquired 18 million events of particle interactions using (5 GeV/c-120 GeV/c) π, K and p beams on various targets. We describe plans to upgrade the data acquisition speed of MIPP to make it run 100 times faster which will enable us to obtain particle production data of unprecdented quality and statistics on a wide variety of nuclear targets including nitrogen which is of importance to cosmic ray physics.

Main Injector Particle Production Experiment (MIPP) at Fermilab
The Main Injector Particle Production Experiment at Fermilab uses particle beams of charged pions, kaons, proton and anti-proton with beam momenta of 5 to 90 GeV/c and thin targets spanning the periodic table from (liquid) hydrogen to uranium to measure particle production cross sections in a full acceptance spectrometer with charged particle identification for particles from 0.1 to 120 GeV/c u...
متن کاملKaon Radiative Decay K± → μνγ at CKM at the Fermilab Main Injector
High statistics data for the K → μνγ decay can allow the precision determination of the kaon structure dependent form factors. This study is possible at the proposed FNAL CKM experiment. CKM (Charged Kaons at the Main injector) is a decay-in-flight spectrometer with two Ring Imaging detectors(RICH), and designed to run at the main injector with a high kaon flux. The radiative decay data might b...
متن کاملNeutrino oscillation physics with a FNAL proton driver
The Fermilab proton driver (FPD) is proposed to consist of a linear accelerator and several main injector modifications. Its purpose is to provide higher fluxes to potential experiments, such as neutrino oscillation experiments [1,2], or muon, kaon, pion, neutron, or antiproton experiments [1]. It is aiming for 8GeV and (up to) 120GeV protons at about 2MW, which is a factor of five to ten past ...
متن کاملLong-Baseline Neutrino Physics in the U.S.
Long-baseline neutrino oscillation physics in the U.S. is centered at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL), in particular at the Neutrinos at the Main Injector (NuMI) beamline commissioned in 2004-2005. Already, the MINOS experiment has published its first results confirming the disappearance of νμ’s across a 735 km baseline. The forthcoming NOνA experiment will search for the trans...
متن کاملFermilab Proton Accelerator Complex Status and Improvement Plans
Fermilab carries out an extensive program of accelerator-based high energy particle physics research at the Intensity Frontier that relies on the operation of 8 GeV and 120 GeV proton beamlines for a n umber of fixed target experiments. Routine operation with a world-record 700kW of average 120 GeV beam power on the neutrino target was achieved in 2017 as the result of the Proton Improvement Pl...
