MTA Quizz
What does MuCool stand for? Muon Cooling Experiment
What does MTA stand for? MuCool Test Area
Is this part of the Proton Source? No! This line belongs to External Beams Division
So… Why do I care?? 1. Because they will extract beam from Linac
More precisely, around the Chopper region2. Because this line will provide us capability to
measure Linac emittance3. Because I am the Project Manager and…
today is my birthday…

MTA Beam line
The beam line will be used to test liquid hydrogen absorbers for beam cooling Desirable beam requirements
H- at 400 MeV 50 mA peak current & 50 sec pulse length @
15 Hz (~1.6E13ppp) Big problem with shielding!!!
Other experiments can use a more modest integrated intensity and rep rate Tests of pressurized RF cavities Irradiation of detector components etc…

MTA Beam line Installation
Goal Install the MTA beam line components, or as much as
possible, during this shutdown. Start from scratch…or almost from scratch
Build stands Refurbish magnets Utilities installation
Expand electrical distribution for MTA Install cable trays Install LCW system for cooling requirements
Install instrumentation, magnets, beam valves, beam stops, vacuum, controls, etc…

MTA - Progress Report
Real Estate established at the South end of the Linac Gallery (thanks Linac group!) Total of 8 relay racks
3 for power supplies 5 for electronics and controls
Magnets Current at IB2 for refurbishment/measurements
6 (5+1) CRD 12(8+4) 200 MeV (TQTB) 5 (4+1) SQA
There are 2 new “C”-magnets been built These magnets will be responsible for beam extraction
from Linac to MuCool enclosure Estimate time for delivery: middle August
6 CDA (5 install+1 spare)
CDR in storage(02/22)
Coil refurbished(04/24)
Alignment nests(05/03)
Current Status
- Coil refurbishement complete
- Power flag relocation ongoing
- Water connections ongoing
10 TQTBs (install 8 + 2 spares)
(also known as 200MeV Quads, Green Quads, 400MeV Quads…)
Reference the magnetscomplete
Hydraulic test passed withflying colors…
Current Status- Remnant field measurement
complete- Upgrade the electrical box
mostly complete- Beam pipes at desired length
installed- Reference is complete
Future Plans: - Ship to MAB to dry fit the
stands and final storage
5 SQA Magnets (install 4 + 1 spares)
SQA staged at X gallerywaiting to be shipped to IB2
(05/11)
Current Status:- 4 magnets staged at IB2- Need to retrieve one
more SQA from Booster tunnel
- Working on stand design
ToDoList1. Flush out the magnet2. Hipot3. Replace the water
tubings with kynar4. Weld alignment
fiducials

MTA - Progress Report Alignment
Network setup Both enclosures have the network done
Tiroids and monuments have been installed on the walls and floor respectively
At MTA Exp. Hall enclosure the local coordinate system has been established Awaiting for an opportunity to complete this job in Linac
The completion of this task prior the shutdown would gain valuable time during the installation
Power Supplies AD/EE group will support the power supplies
Quadrupoles (B. Brooker) 200 MeV Bartleson supplies SQAs Lambda
Cooling Ring Dipoles (B. Brooker) String of 4 PEI (Linac Lower Level) Single Power Ten (from 400MeV upgrade)
“C” magnet (M. Kuffer) New power supply being built
Trims (B. Brooker) Inherit from Booster after the shutdown

MTA - Progress Report
Instrumentations/Diagnostics
BPM System Use 10 Booster style pickups Readout electronics will be similar to the pbar target bpms.
Toroid System There will be 3 toroids installed
The beam line only needs 2 toroids. One right at the extraction from Linac and the other at the very end. The 3rd toroid will be installed adjacent to the most DW one for instrumentation/interlock group e-berm development platform
Booster has two (2) 3.25in Pearson toroids. The other one will be supplied by instrumentation group.
MWs Requirements: 7 MWs with different wire spacing Booster has enough MW cans that will be re-used MW electronics will be similar to KTeV system.
BLMs There will be 12 BLMs along the line. Electronics will be provided by M. Olson.
Controls (M. Kucera)
M. Kucera and R. Godwin are helping integrate MTA to the Linac Control System.

MTA Installation - Current Issues
Shielding under the hatchway area The existing shielding underneath the
hatch is not sufficient to run beam to the MTA enclosure

It has been installed primary to protect personnel inside the
MTA enclosure from Linac beam

MTA Installation – Current Issues (cont.)
Hey! Wait…there is more… Problem:805 MHz waveguide, 201MHz Coax and cable tray runinside the hatch!!
06/08/07 F.G. Garcia 14
MTA Installation – Current Issues (cont.)
Head of External Beam line decided to remove the shielding blocks underneath the hatch and re-stack appropriately Work group meets weekly with safety to resolve this
problem. More manpower has been added to the group in order to re-
design the shielding configuration It must accommodate a beam stop upstream the shielding wall It looks like one may be able to leave the WG, Coax and cable
tray as is and work around it (?) Still need to be resolved and decided
MTA wants to run during the shutdown… You may be wondering…if the shielding will be removed,
what about NTF? Good question:
NTF will be able to run with the hatch shielding removed and the subsequent RF stations locked off.
However, the hatch must be installed and locked, and MuCOOL would need to be interlocked to Linac.
06/08/07 F.G. Garcia 15
MTA Installation – Current Issues (cont.)
If the shielding blocks are removed… The beam line installation will take
advantage of this. Major components will be lower to the
enclosure thru the hatch area The original plan was to use the infrastructure
available at north end of Linac Up to 25% reduction in installation time one
could expect If the network and the stake survey in Linac
enclosure are accomplished prior the shutdown, another 3 days can easily be saved during the shutdown…

Bottom line
The project is facing some challenges We have a plan to manage these problems in
order to minimize the risk of project delay Working on a strategy to address the problem Patience and perseverance are the key at this point
I have no doubt we will resolve the issues and complete the installation within the shutdown timeframe!

Repetition Rate(Hz)

Beam intensity(protons/pulse)
1.6E16 5.5E12
The simplest way of doing it is to use a Linac beam study pulse.
At a glance: - Currently Linac uses 3
dedicated chop lengths as inputs to the pulse shifter (HEP,NTF & studies).
- T-clock event triggers request for beam, in this case, studies pulse ($OA).
- The frequency of the beam can be adjusted by the rep rate generator.
