Numerical Simulation of Hydro- and Magnetohydrodynamic Processes in the Muon Collider Target
نویسنده
چکیده
We have developed numerical methods and performed numerical simulations of the proposed Muon Collider target. The target will be designed as a pulsed jet of mercury interacting with strong proton beams in a 20 Tesla magnetic field. A numerical approach based on the method of front tracking for numerical simulation of magnetohydrodynamic flows in discontinuous media was implemented in FronTier, a hydrodynamics code with free interface support. The FronTier-MHD code was used to study the evolution of the mercury jet in the target magnet system. To model accurately the interaction of the mercury target with proton pulses, a realistic equation of state for mercury was created in a wide temperature pressure domain. The mercury target proton pulse interaction was simulated during 120 microseconds. Simulations predict that the mercury target will be broken into a set of droplets with velocities in the range 20 60 m/sec.

In this paper the cycle of muon catalyzed fusion processes has been simulated using Monte-Carlo methods. This simulation starts when muon enters the D/T mixture and follows the actual trajectories of the muonic atoms among the proceeding collisions, by using their cross sections. For this purpose a computer code has been written by Fortran language. The time dependence of the processes is take...

متن کاملOptimum target value of multivariate processes with unequal non-conforming costs
In quality control charts, the problem of determining the optimum process mean arises when the deviation of a quality characteristic in one direction is more harmful than in the opposite direction. The failure mode in these two directions is usually different. A great majority of researches in this area have considered asymmet-ric cost function for processes with single quality characteristics....
