2GeV SUPERCONDUCTING MUON LINAC
نویسنده
چکیده
A muon collider as well as a neutrino factory requires a large number of muons with a kinetic energy of 50GeV or more. Muon survival demands a high gradient linac. The large transverse and longitudinal emittance of the muon beam coming from a muon cooling system implies the need for a large acceptance, acceleration system. These two requirements point clearly to a linac based on superconducting technology. The design of a 2GeV Superconducting muon Linac based on computer programs developed at LANL will be presented. The design is based on the technology available today or components that will be avaible in the very near future.

Muon Acceleration in a Superconducting Proton Linac
This note describes how a future Fermilab proton driver [1] based on TESLA superconducting linac modules can perform as both the source of protons to produce the muons and as the accelerator of the muons to be used for a neutrino factory or muon collider. Recent advances in muon cooling [2] have the promise of muon emittances that are compatible with the 1300 MHz accelerating structures that ar...
متن کاملA Shared Superconducting Linac for Protons and Muons
It has been shown how a superconducting Linac that was designed to be a high-intensity proton driver for Fermilab [1] can be modified and augmented to also serve as the muon accelerating section for a neutrino factory [2]. In this report we consider the same approach, where the Linac does double duty, but with the idea that the Linac and other parameters are chosen to serve only as a neutrino f...
متن کاملMuon Phase Rotation Using an Induction Linac*
The proposed neutrino factory requires that the muons produced by the decay of pions and kaons produced by a target be phase-rotated before they can be cooled and then accelerated. This report describes a muon phaserotation system that employs an induction acceleration system. The phase-rotation system consists of a 100meter long induction accelerator, a mini-cooling system with magnetic flux r...

In view of a possible evolution of the CERN accelerator complex towards higher proton intensities, a 2.2 GeV H linac with 4 MW beam power has been designed, for use in connection with an accumulator and compressor ring as proton driver of a muon-based Neutrino Factory. The high-energy part of this linac can use most of the RF equipment (superconducting cavities and klystrons) from the LEP colli...
متن کاملIssues in Acceleration of a Muon Beam for a Neutrino Factory*
We have developed a concept for acceleration of a large phase-space, pulsed muon beam from 190 MeV to 50 GeV as part of a collaborative study of the feasibility of a neutrino factory based on in-flight decay of muons. The muon beam’s initial energy spread was ~20% and each bunch had the physical size of a soccer ball. Production of the muons will be quite expensive, so prevention of loss due to...
