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.

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.

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.
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)
Positive- and Negative-charged Secondary Beam (120 GeV) Significant contamination from protons.
DY Cross Section, Target and Acceptance • DY cross section is calculated utilizing the proton and pion PDF functions in the CENRLIB “pdflib”. A cut on M>1.0 GeV/c2 is imposed. • 20-inches long LH2 target. • Three configurations of the focusing magnet (KMAG): • I=1000: Low dimuon-mass • I=2000: Intermediate dimuon-mass • I=2750: Large dimuon-mass

Summary Table *:at a rate of 1*10^12 protons per spill, 60 spills per hour, 100 hours per week, and 26 weeks of running per year. This yields an integrated proton intensity of 1.6*10^17 protons per year. (FERMILAB-TM-2108)

Summary • A extremely small yield of pion-induced DY measurement (~1/per year) at intermediate-mass region is estimated under the current beam and detector configuration for FNAL E906. • Possible ways for increasing the production rate: • Increase of beam intensity: x10 • Increase of momentum bite: x5 (1% 5%) • Increase of target length: x2 • Usage of NH3 target: x5 • Optimization of detection acceptance: x2 • Measurement of low-mass DY events is possible and interesting.
