  1. 119. Progress and scientific activities of the Japanese DC muon facility
    Dr Akira Sato (Osaka University)
    29/08/2019, 16:00
    Oral Presentation

    We started to provide DC muon beams to world wide users in 2015 at Osaka, Japan. The DC muon facility was built in Research Center of Nuclear Physics (RCNP) of Osaka University, and was named MuSIC.
    In MuSIC, muons are generated using 392 MeV protons hitting a Graphite target. Then, all charged secondary particles are immediately captured by a 3.5 Tesla magnetic field. This particle capture...

  2. 130. Status and Future Prospect of Muon Target at J-PARC MLF
    Dr Shunsuke Makimura (J-PARC/KEK)
    29/08/2019, 16:25
    Oral Presentation

    A pulsed muon beam with unprecedented intensity will be generated by a 3-GeV 333-microA proton beam on a muon target made of 20-mm thick isotropic graphite at J-PARC MLF MUSE (Muon Science Establishment). The energy deposited by a 1-MW proton beam is estimated to be 3.9kW in the muon target. The first muon beam was successfully generated on September 26th, 2008. Gradually upgrading the beam...

  3. 101. Development of next generation muon beams at Paul Scherrer Institute
    Ryoto Iwai (ETHZ - ETH Zurich)
    29/08/2019, 16:50
    Oral Presentation

    The Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) provides the world$'$s highest intensity muon beam up to $\sim10^{8}\, \mu^{+}/\rm{s}$ at $28\, \rm{MeV/c}$ momentum. The HiMB project aims to improve this rate by two orders of magnitude. Meanwhile, the muCool collaboration is developing a device which converts a standard surface $\mu^{+}$ beam of cm-size and MeV-energy into a beam of 1$\,$mm-size and...

  4. 99. Design and development of a tungsten pion production target for the Mu2e experiment
    Dr Christopher Densham (Christopher)
    29/08/2019, 17:15
    Oral Presentation

    The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab will search for the neutrino-less conversion of a muon to an electron in the field of a nucleus. Negative muons will be produced from the decay of pions generated by the interaction of an 8 GeV proton beam with a tungsten target. The target will be installed in the bore of a production solenoid within a graded magnetic field so as to maximise the production and...

  5. 114. Mu2e Muon Beam Optimization
    Helenka Casler (City University of New York / York College campus)
    29/08/2019, 17:40
    Oral Presentation

    Mu2e is a new experiment under construction at Fermilab, which will search for coherent neutrinoless conversion of muons to electrons. In order to reach its projected single-event sensitivity of $3 \times 10^{-17},$ Mu2e will create the most intense muon beam ever developed, with $10^{10}$ muons per second stopping in the stopping target. Optimization of this muon beam for Mu2e will be discussed.
