Abstract

The design and performance of a muon béam built at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center is described. The transport system delivers 14 GeV positive muons with a spot size of σ ≈ 4 mm in each plane, divergence of σ ≈ 2 mrad in each plane, momentum bite of ±1%, a total of 1.6% halo, with a π contamination of (4±1.5) × 10−5. With present incident beam power limitations due to primary target design, the flux is ∼ 40 000 muons/s. The full power of SLAC would yield 170 000 muons/s.
