DESIGN OF MAGNETS FOR THE TARGET AND DECAY REGION OF A MUON COLLIDER/NEUTRINO FACTORY TARGET

摘要

The baseline target concept for a Muon Collider or Neutrino Factory is a free mercury jet within a 20-T magnetic field being impacted by an 8-GeV proton beam. A pool of mercury serves as a receiving reservoir for the mercury and a dump for the unexpended proton beam. Modifications to this baseline are discussed in which the field at the target is reduced from 20 to 15 T, and in which the magnetic field drops from its peak value down to 1.5 T over 7 rather than 15m.
