30 T on Target Neutrino Factory / Muon Collider Front - End
نویسنده
چکیده
A novel aspect of this design comes from using the windows on the rf cavity as the cooling absorbers. This is possible because the near constant β function does not significantly increase the emittance heating at the window location. The window consists of a 1 cm thickness of LiH with a 75μm layer of Be on the rf cavity field side and, 25μm layer of Be on the opposite side. (The Be will, in turn, have a thin coating of TiN to prevent multipactoring). The alternating 2.8 T solenoidal field is produced with one solenoid per half cell, located between the rf cavities.

A 4-mw Target Station for a Muon Collider or Neutrino Factory
We outline a program of engineering design and simulation for a target station and pion production/capture system for a 4-MW proton beam at the front end of a Muon Collider or a Neutrino Factory. The target system consists of a free liquid-metal (nominally mercury) jet immersed in a high-field solenoid magnet capture system that also incorporates the proton beam dump. Topics to be studied inclu...
متن کاملThe Muon Front End for the Neutrino Factory
In the Neutrino Factory, muons are produced by firing high energy protons onto a target to produce pions. The pions decay to muons and pass through a capture channel known as the muon front end, before acceleration to 12.6 GeV. The muon front end comprises a variable frequency RF system for longitudinal capture and an ionisation cooling channel. In this paper we detail recent improvements in th...
متن کاملMagnet Design for the Target System of a Muon Collider/Neutrino Factory
The Target System and Pion Decay Channel for a Muon Collider/Neutrino Factory utilizes a string of solenoid magnets to capture and transport the low-energy pions whose decay provides the desired muon beams. The magnetic field strength at the target is 15-20 T, “tapering” down to 1.5-3 T in the Decay Channel. The superconducting coils which produce these fields must have substantial inner radius...
متن کاملTowards the Optimal Energy of the Proton Driver for a Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider*
Cross-section data from the HARP experiment for pion production by protons from a tantalum target have been convoluted with the acceptance of the front-end channel for the proposed neutrino factory or muon collider and integrated over the full phase space measured by HARP, to determine the beam-energy dependence of the muon yield. This permits a determination of the optimal beam energy for the ...
متن کاملTHE MERIT(nTOF-11) HIGH INTENSITY LIQUID MERCURY TARGET EXPERIMENT AT THE CERN PS
The MERIT(nTOF-11) experiment is a proof-ofprinciple test of a target system for a high power proton beam to be used as front-end for a neutrino factory or a muon collider. The experiment took data in autumn 2007 with the fast-extracted beam from the CERN Proton Synchrotron (PS) to a maximum intensity of 30 × 10 per pulse. The target system, based on a free mercury jet, is capable of intercepti...
