HISHAM KAMAL SAYED BROOKHAVEN NATIONAL LABORATORY
MAP COLLABORATION MEETING FERMILAB 2013
INTRODUCTION & LAYOUT
Muon Capture in Target & Front END
Ø Capture Solenoid Field Study: Ø Optimizing quantity: Muon (Pions) count – transverse capture
- Target Solenoid peak field - Final end field
Ø Optimizing quality: Muon (Pions) longitudinal phase space (transverse-longitudinal coupling) – transverse-longitudinal capture - Taper field profile
Ø Optimizing the time of flight of incident beam (Buncher-Rotator RF phase) Ø Transverse focusing field in decay-channel-buncher-rotator Ø Match to ionization cooling channel for every end field case 1.5 T à 3.5 T Ø Performance of front end as a function of proton bunch length Ø Realistic Coil Design & performance optimization

CONCLUSION & SUMMARY
Hisham Sayed -‐ MAP meeJng 2013 6/20/13
19
1- Target Solenoid parameters that affect the particle Capture & Transmission at target or after cooling Initial peak Field – Taper length – End Field 2- Impact: Short taper preserves the longitudinal phase-space à muons can be captured efficiently in the buncher-phase rotation sections and more muons at the end of cooling. The maximum yield requires taper length of 7-5 m for all cases (20-15T) (1.5-3.5T) for any bunch length. 3- Final constant end field increases the yield by 20% for every 1 T increase in the field beyond the 1.5 T baseline 4- Initial proton bunch length influence the muon/proton yield at the end of the cooling channel ~ 3% reduction per 1 nsec increase in bunch length. 5- Realistic Coil design.
