Transport from the Recycler Ring to the Antiproton Source Beamlines

TL;DR

This paper presents the conceptual design of a new beamline that transports 8 GeV protons from the Recycler Ring to the Antiproton Source beamlines, enabling delivery to experiments without new civil construction.

Contribution

It introduces a novel transfer line design connecting the Recycler Ring to the existing beamlines for efficient proton delivery.

Findings

Design successfully integrates with existing infrastructure

Allows proton transfer without additional civil construction

Supports Mu2e and g-2 experimental needs

Abstract

In the post-Nova era, the protons are directly transported from the Booster ring to the Recycler ring rather than the Main Injector. For Mu2e and g-2 project, the Debuncher ring will be modified into a Delivery ring to deliver the protons to both Mu2e and g-2 experiemnts. Therefore, It requires the transport of protons from the Recycler Ring to the Delivery ring. A new transfer line from the Recycler ring to the P1 beamline will be constructed to transport proton beam from the Recycler Ring to existing Antiproton Source beamlines. This new beamline provides a way to deliver 8 GeV kinetic energy protons from the Booster to the Delivery ring, via the Recycler, using existing beam transport lines, and without the need for new civil construction. This paper presents the Conceptual Design of this new beamline.
