Description

We describe the design of the co-axial dual-solenoids of the 4th concept and the rationale for a superior (better than LEP) muon system. We show the ANSYS analysis, muon resolutions, and expected physics performance. The dual-solenoids do not cover the forward angular regions, so we explore the possibility of a wall of coils to contain the magnetic field to a compact cylindrical volume and at the same time provide a radial field for the momentum measurement bending of forward muons.

Summary

The configuration of dual co-axial solenoids coupled with a wall of circular coils at
the ends of the outer solenoid provides nearly full coverage for muon momentum
measurements.
