Abstract

A study of the optimum conditions for antiproton production within a fixed phase volume — the acceptance of the antiproton accumulator or other device, has been made in order to determine the requirements for optical systems used for proton focusing onto the target and antiproton collection. An analytical evaluation of particle capture efficiency is reported and compared to computer simulation results. The possibility of increasing the capture efficiency by means of antiproton focusing within the target is considered for the examples of a target with current providing the distributed focusing through the target length and a target with concentrated focusing carried out with lenses placed between target sections.
