The following are outputs from Transport and Revmoc runs on M13. I'll replace this with a more polished version when I get a chance.
Transport and Revmoc tunes for M13
--
As I understand it, there are approximately three ways to tune the muon beam to get particles across the fringe field.
I am able only to look at the first two of the above using Transport and Revmoc. I'm not an expert on either, but I believe that I have a code which includes the a fringing of the entrance field, but which has no fringe field at the exit. This allows for the consideration of rays which stop inside of the solenoid.
The basic conclusions (which can be gleaned from the following figures) are that:
My conclusions:
The above distributions look similar for either the focused or the parallel tune brought across the fringe field. The flux appears to be slightly better for parallel rays incident upon the fringe field.
This does not argue against the possibility of an "adiabatic transition" across the fringe field.
The rates are:
Focused tune: 1.6x10^-4 = (806 Good Muons) / (5 x 10^6 Generated Muons)
Parallel tune: 1.93x10^-4 = (694 Good Muons) / (3.6 x 10^6 Generated Muons)
Where the normalization is to the total particles generated into the REVMOC phase space (darn… I'll need to check on the momentum distribution which was used if anyone wants to try to convert this into a real fllux) which is defined by
XSIZE .84 130.0
YSIZE .5 330.0
