SBS Magnet
SBS: a “large” acceptance, small angle, moderate resolution device
48D48 Basic Geometry
Have had contact with the contact engineer at
BNL. The magnet isn’t going anywhere.
Present Status of the Magnet(s)and Power Supplies
• Have made contact with the engineer at BNL who will be our contact for the property transfer.
• The magnets are “not going anywhere”.• Power supplies are also available, but old:
– Refurbished in the 80’s– Customized controls
• Anticipating having funding to move the magnets in October at the earliest, have tentatively planned a trip to Brookhaven in August to check things out in person and start arrangements for the transfer.
Needed Modifications to the Magnet
• For small angles at short distance– Cut opening in Yoke– Modify coils
• For Polarized Target & background control– Add field clamp to reduce field at target
• For beam transport to the dump– Field clamp (again)– Add magnetically shielded beam pipe– Add solenoid

Various Views of the Modified Magnet
TOSCA modeling update
• Spring 2010: Robin Wines was assigned the task of doing detailed TOSCA modeling of the SBS magnet and the proposed modifications
• She is still creating/correcting the TOSCA model• Expect 1st results next week!
Optics
It’s really very simple!
This is what it looks like to me!
SNAKE P = 7-9 GeV/c
δ (%) (Momentum) 0.48
θtar (mrad) 0.16
ytar (mm) 0.9
φtar (mrad) 0.30
Expected Performance
Conclusion
• Magnet and power supply exist and are available• Magnet will work nicely
– with proposed modifications– TOSCA modeling of modifications is ongoing
• Will start to actively try to acquire the magnet(s) and power supply(ies) when funding is clearer
• Optics are very simple
