A Sensitivity Study for a MICE Liquid Hydrogen Absorber
نویسنده
چکیده
The International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) is devoted to a study of a muon cooling channel capable of giving the desired performance for a Neutrino Factory. One of the goals is achieving an absolute accuracy of measurements of emittance reduction as high as ±0.1%. The paper describes results of a Monte Carlo study on allowed density variations of liquid hydrogen corresponding to the desired accuracy of the measurements.

The Liquid Hydrogen System for the Mucool Test Area
A new MuCool test area (MTA) is under construction at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. This facility will house a cryo-system composed of a liquid hydrogen absorber enclosed in a 5 Tesla magnet. The total volume of liquid hydrogen in the system is 25 liters. Helium gas at 14 K is provided by an in-house refrigerator and will sub-cool the hydrogen system to 17 K. Liquid hydrogen temperatur...
متن کاملPerformance and comparison of gold-based neutron flux monitors
In two test series, liquid and solid gold-based neutron flux monitor materials were investigated with respect to the effects of neutron absorbers such as chlorine, scattering effects, and the dependence of the enhanced activation caused by the epithermal resonance integral. The liquid monitors were prepared from aqueous solutions of tetraamminegold(III) nitrate and tetrachloroauric(III) acid. T...

متن کاملProgress in Absorber R&d 2: Windows *
A program is underway to develop liquid-hydrogen energy absorbers for ionization cooling of muon-beam transverse emittance. Minimization of multiple-scattering-induced beam heating requires thin windows. The first window prototype has been destructively tested, validating the finite-element-analysis model and the design approach.
متن کاملConceptual Design of Single-Acting Oleo-Pneumatic Shock Absorber in Landing Gear with Combined Method
Landing gear is a structure that is mounted under the fuselage and helps the aircraft in takeoffs and landings. The most important duty of landing gear is the control of vibration exerted on the system through the shock absorber which is a common component to all the landing gear. Considering the importance of this issue, the necessity of investigating shock absorber with features such as high ...
