2 A. GasparianPrimEx-II Beam Line, August 5, 2010 2 MC Results for the PrimEx-I configuration Beam Background on HyCal: Energy Distribution (arbitrary numbers) (Photons)/(All)=(50,250/72,980) = 69% (Charged Part.)/(All)=(22,730/72,980) = 31% Charged particles dominate at E> 1 GeV Photons dominate at E < 1 GeV Pay attention the Y-scale is LOG

4 A. GasparianPrimEx-II Beam Line, August 5, 2010 4 Step #1: What if we take the Permanent Magnet off from the beam line? (Charged Particles only, for now) Conclusion #1 Permanent magnet effectively cuts the Charged background at less than ~1 GeV range. Total efficiency is a factor of 2. We need Permanent Magnet!!! Effect of the Permanent Magnet Field On the CHARGED background: B perm =0 KG, total Number=42,680 (188%) B perm =7 KG (the Current)= 22,730 (100%) B perm =14 KG (doubled) = 7,769 (34%)

5 A. GasparianPrimEx-II Beam Line, August 5, 2010 5 Step #1: What if we take the Permanent Magnet off from the beam line? (All Particles now) Conclusion #2 Permanent magnet does not cut the Photon component of the background. But, the total net effect is ~30% reduction for 7KG We need Permanent Magnet!!! Effect of the Permanent Magnet Field on all particle background: B perm =0 KG, total Number=95,170 (130%) B perm =7 KG (the Current)=72,980 (100%) B perm =14 KG (doubled) = 47,600 (74%)

6 A. GasparianPrimEx-II Beam Line, August 5, 2010 6 Step#2: Different Diameter Pb-Shieldings (B perm =7KG (current one), for now) Charged Particles Effect of the Pb-shield diameter on charged particle background: Diam.= 2.5”, total Number=32,050 (141%) diam.=1.53”(the Current) =22,730 (100%) diam.=0.8” = 8,801 (39%) Conclusion # 3 Pb-shield effectively cuts the Charged background at less than ~2 GeV range. Total efficiency is about factor of 2.5 We need smaller diam. Pb-shielding!!!

GasparianPrimEx-II Beam Line, August 5, 2010 7 Step#2: Different Diameter Pb-Shieldings (B perm =7KG (current one) for now) Photons Only Effect of the Pb-shield diameter on Photon background: Diam.= 2.5”, total Number=56,160 (112%) diam.=1.53”(the Current) =50,250 (100%) diam.=0.8” = 28,970 (58%) Conclusion # 4 Smaller diam. Pb-shielding effectively cuts the Photon background also. Total efficiency: factor of ~2 We need smaller diam. Pb-shielding!!!

25 A. GasparianPrimEx-II Beam Line, August 5, 2010 25 Summary++ Based on the current Monte Carlo simulations: 1)We do not need to increase the Pb-shielding diameter; 2)The background on HyCal is significantly less for the smaller diameter Pb-shielding; 3) 0.8” diameter is the smallest we can have. It can be done by inserting a ~10 r.l. ring inside of the existing beam pipe (Dave Kashy); 4)“Tapered” main Collimator is another factor of 2 more effective 5) D. Kashy’s suggested version #3 is the best for the PrimEx-II beam line 6) It will potentially reduce the background on HyCal by factor of 5 7) Interactive Geant shows that +32 cm down for PS is not critical for the  0 run. Detail simulations for this part will be provided in next few days.
