MOPZ008 | Particle Production Simulations for the Neutrino Factory Target | 835 |
|

Funding: EU FP7 EUROnu WP3 In the International Design Study for the Neutrino Factory (IDS-NF), a proton beam with a kinetic energy between 5 and 15 GeV interacts with a liquid mercury jet target in order to produce pions that will decay to muons, which in turn decay to neutrinos. The target is situated in a solenoidal field tapering from 20 T down to 1.5 T over a length of several metres, allowing for an optimised capture of pions in order to produce a useful muon beam for the machine. We present results of target particle production calculations using MARS, FLUKA and G4BEAMLINE simulation codes. |

Funding: This work is supported in part by the US DOE Contract NO. DE-AC02-98CH10886. We present the results of power deposition in various components of the baseline target station of a Muon Collider or a Neutrino Factory driven by a 4-MW proton beam. |
