  7. Advantages of 120 GeV Main Injector The future: Fermilab E906 • Data taking planned in 2010 • 1H, 2H, and nuclear targets • 120 GeV proton Beam The (very successful) past: Fermilab E866/NuSea • Data in 1996-1997 • 1H, 2H, and nuclear targets • 800 GeV proton beam • Cross section scales as 1/s • 7x that of 800 GeV beam • Backgrounds, primarily from J/ decays scale as s • 7x Luminosity for same detector rate as 800 GeV beam • 50x statistics!! Fixed Target Beam lines Tevatron 800 GeV Main Injector 120 GeV

  8. 4.9m Station 2 and 3: Hodoscope array Drift Chamber tracking E906 Spectrometer Hadron Absorber Station 1: Hodoscope array MWPC tracking Solid Iron Focusing Magnet, Hadron absorber and beam dump Solid iron magnet • Reuse SM3 magnet coils • Sufficient Field with reasonable coils • Beam dumped within magnet Mom. Meas. (KTeV Magnet) Station 4: Hodoscope array Prop tube tracking 25m • Experimental Challenge: • Higher probability of muonic decay for the produced hadrons. • Larger multiple scattering for the muon traveling through hadron absorber and solid magnet. • Worse duty factor for beam structure. • Higher singles rates. Liquid H2, d2, and solid targets

  9. Extracting d-bar/-ubar From Drell-Yan Scattering Ratio of Drell-Yan cross sections (in leading order—E866 data analysis confirmed in NLO) • Global NLO PDF fits which include E866 cross section ratios agree with E866 results • Fermilab E906/Drell-Yan will extend these measurements and reduce statistical uncertainty. • E906 expects systematic uncertainty to remain at approx. 1% in cross section ratio. Acceptance sitting at large x_beam due to the small beam energy.

  12. Outline of Feasibility Study • Momentum profile of secondary beams from 120-GeV primary proton hitting 400mm Be target. Proton flux is assumed to be 1*1012 /per spill. • Drell-Yan cross sections from  beam interacting with LH2 target. • E906 acceptance evaluated by E906 FastMC. • Final yield (= # of beam * # of target/area * DY cross section * E906 Acceptance) as a function of beam momentum for  beam. • Repeat the study for the case of 980-GeV proton beam. • Summary table.

  13. Momentum Distribution of Secondary Beam • Primary beam: 120-GeV proton. • Flux: 1*1012/spill. • Target: 400mm Be. • Acceptance: 2 mrad angular acceptance (0.25-2.0). • Momentum bite: 1%. • Use “malensek.f” coded by Chuck Brown. • Reference: Malensek parameterization (http://ppd.fnal.gov/experiments/e907/notes/MIPPnotes/public/pdf/MIPP0008/MIPP0008.pdf)
