Uranium beam at AGS Extraction • species 238U+90 • B=92.816 Tm • rel=0.995125 • =10.14065 • t=25 ns
Beam Optics (AGS to target of Neutrino Line) • Establish circulating beam in AGS at extraction energy with extraction bumps turned on. • Start at G10 kicker location (G10 kicker ON) and transport the beam down to neutrino line. • Constrains used in beam transport: • Maintain beam size to clear beam apertures. • Beam achromatic at the target location???
How do we reduce the beam at the target to 5000 particles/bunch • Focus the U+90 on target and use dipole and quadrupoles to deflect the core of the beam and also defocus it. • Focus the U+90 on target and use insert the Wsripperand/or the Uf2 flag to strip away the tripped U ions and hope the intensity of the unstripped ions is good enough to be detected at the target. Alternatively change the setting of the 8o bend to allow the U+91beam which has higher intensity.. • Focus the U+90 on target and use insert flags down stream of the 8obend. Defocus the beam using Q10 to Q13 qudrupoles.
Stripping of 10.3 GeV/n Au+77 ions Using: a) 1.0 [mm] Al2O3 b) 0.025 [mm] W foilc) 0.051 [mm] Gd2O2S:Tb on 0.0254 [mm] Al Only results from measurements are presented. For any other information on the measurements please conduct tsoupas@bnl.gov tsoupas@bnl.gov
