TRIUMF survey of muon beams

Comparison of muon rates in various beamlines

Mega beam line at LAMPF (now called LANCE)

This beamline has been decommissioned and may be available. Contactperson: Martin Cooper, 505-667-2929, [email protected]

Three pages from the LAMPF Users Handbook.

This beam was designed by Pat Thompson, now at BNL/RHIC, 516-344-7635.

The proposed PRISM facility in Japan will provide a test bed for many aspects of a neutrino factory front end. Another sketch of PRISM.

The MECO experiment at BNL will build a muon beamline that could be operated with 10^12 muons in 6 pulses over 2.5 microsec. Superseded by the Mu2e experiment at Fermilab.
