Updates from 9/24/03 video discussion
• Target intersecting beam: 10 mm2 => 2 mm2
• Layout of beamline added• G4beamline input file added (gives geometrical
details)
TJR 9/24/03 3
Goals
• Compute the absolute normalization of the beamline – Mu/sec at Diffuser1
– Good Mu/sec through the MICE detector
– Singles rates in the beamline
• Generate lots of muons at Diffuser1 to use in optimization studies of the MICE detector

The Bottom Line
Protons/sec in accelerator: 3.7×1016
Protons/sec intersecting target: 1.7×1012
Pions/sec into beamline accept.: 3.0×106
Pi+ + Mu+ /sec at Diffuser1: 37kMu+/sec at Diffuser1: 25kGood Mu+/sec through the detector: 54
All of these “per sec” occur during the 1 ms per second when our target is in the beam and our RF is active.
TJR 9/24/03 9
Comparison to the MICE proposal
• Mu+/sec at Diffuser1:– MICE Proposal: 3,000
– This computation: 25,000
• Major differences:– 700 MeV/c protons → 800 MeV/c
– Target geometry:• Height = 2 mm → 10 mm
– Diffuser1 geometry: • r=20 cm → 25 cm
• Diffuser1-B2 = 3 m → 2 m
• These differences account for a factor of ~6

MICE Beam Layout and Tune• Layout from “LAYOUT-MICE 14May03”
– Bend 1 is 60°, Bend 2 is 30°– Target to Diffuser1 is 18.8 m
• Quad (Type IV) and Bending Magnet (Type I) parameters are from RAL drawings and tables.
• Fringe fields for Bending Magnets were computed via Laplace’s equation; quads are ideal (no fringe fields).
• Bend 1 is tuned for 300 MeV/c pions• Bend 2 is tuned for 200 MeV/c muons• Quads are tuned for maximum mu/pi ratio at Diffuser1
(using minuit) – the triplet is configured DFD (~20% better than FDF)
• Target re-oriented so a long edge is along the beam.
TJR 9/24/03 14
Input Beam
• Pi+ beam• 200 MeV/c < P < 400 MeV/c (uniform)• dxdz and dydz generated to cover Q1 aperture
(uniform)• Target is 10 mm high, 10*cos(25°) mm wide
(uniform)
• All materials kill tracks instantly, without secondaries
