Presently, the Booster is limited to an average rep.
Rate of 2.5
|
|
Hz, which would only yield a small fraction of the
desired
|
|
|
MiniBooNE intensity. The primary limitation is the
pulsed
|
|
|
extraction septum magnet (MP02).
|
|
|
• |
A new power supply will go in in the next few weeks,
which
|
|
|
will raise this rate to 4.5 Hz, which would give
about half the
|
|
|
nominal MiniBooNE rate.
|
|
|
• |
A new magnet will go in during the January shutdown
which
|
|
|
will allow the Booster to go to 7.5 Hz – enough for
|
|
|
MiniBooNE or NUMI.
|
|
|
• |
In order to run both MiniBooNE and NUMI, we need
|
|
|
|
– |
More cables for the extraction septum.
|
|
|
|
– |
Cooling for the RF cavities (or new RF cavities)
|
|
|
|
– |
A new “bump” magnet, which steers beam out during
injection.
