SBS Magnet John J. LeRose Hall A Collaboration Meeting, June 2010
SBS: a “large” acceptance, small angle, moderate resolution device
Have had contact with the contact engineer at BNL. The magnet isn’t going anywhere.
Present Status of the Magnet(s)and Power Supplies • Have made contact with the engineer at BNL who will be our contact for the property transfer. • The magnets are “not going anywhere”. • Power supplies are also available, but old: • Refurbished in the 80’s • Customized controls • Anticipating having funding to move the magnets in October at the earliest, have tentatively planned a trip to Brookhaven in August to check things out in person and start arrangements for the transfer.
Needed Modifications to the Magnet • For small angles at short distance • Cut opening in Yoke • Modify coils • For Polarized Target & background control • Add field clamp to reduce field at target • For beam transport to the dump • Field clamp (again) • Add magnetically shielded beam pipe • Add solenoid
Layout of system with part of yoke removed Field Clamp Shielded Beam pipe Modified Coils
With magnetically shielded pipe with 1kA/cm current density solenoid B at target < 2 Gauss Calculations by StepanMikhailov Using “Mermaid” (units are kG, cm) Nice clean magnetic field
y y’ x’ θ x 1 mm @ 30m Effect on beamline by transverse field is effectively eliminated
TOSCA modeling update • Spring 2010: Robin Wines was assigned the task of doing detailed TOSCA modeling of the SBS magnet and the proposed modifications • She is still creating/correcting the TOSCA model • Expect 1st results next week!
Optics It’s really very simple!
Conclusion • Magnet and power supply exist and are available • Magnet will work nicely • with proposed modifications • TOSCA modeling of modifications is ongoing • Will start to actively try to acquire the magnet(s) and power supply(ies) when funding is clearer • Optics are very simple
