Efficiency of an Alternating Gradient Muon Collection Channel (CERN NuFact Note 128) |
B.Autin, F.Méot, A.Verdier |
The target system of a neutrino factory is more robust when the proton beam is distributed over several target s. The pion beams have then to be merged into a single beam using a \"funneling\" method. The recombination proposed involves alternating gradient (AG) magnets. The decay channel may be either an AG line or a single long solenoid. The first scheme is analyzed in detail, comparisons with the second one are provided. |
