The H4 Secondary Beam Line of EHN1/SPS
N. Charitonidis & B. Rae - December 2017
The H4 beam line of
EHN1 is a high-energy, high-resolution secondary beam line.
The maximum momentum that can be transported in the experiments is 400 GeV/c
protons (primary SPS beam) or secondary mixed hadron beams within the range 10-400
GeV/c, in a variety of production angles. Moreover, electron beams with
variable purity (10 – 99.5%) are also possible. The maximum Δp/p acceptance of the line is 2%.
The beam height from the building floor is
2060mm.
The beam composition, the rate, the momentum and the
polarities of the transported particles in H4 and the neighboring H2 beam
line are strongly correlated, and are a function of the configuration of the
target station (“wobbling”), the collimator settings and the materials
present in the beam line. Please contact the responsible liaison physicist
for details on the possibilities of each configuration.
The intensities on the targets and the number of
extractions (“spills”) in the supercycle are decided in the user meeting and
in accordance with the user schedule. For more information on these subjects, please contact the SPS coordinator.
