RF Separators and Separated Beams at SLAC
It has been shown that with momenta above -5 GeV/c, the only effective means of separation by particle mass in secondary beams is using RF deflectors. 192 Particle separation at proton synchrotrons requires the use of two RF deflectors. The beam structure at SLAC permits the use of a single deflector. second RFS to intercept the unwanted particles. For wanted particles the phase at the second RFS relative to that at the first is A& given in (4). The net deflection can range from Introduction
Uses of superconducting rf structures in pion beams at LAMPF
Abstract Calculations indicate that a single-cell superconducting rf cavity can be used to reduce the energy spread of a secondary pion beam. Such a device would increase the pion flux in a small energy spread pion beam at the Low Energy Pion channel at LAMPF by more than a factor of 5.
5.63 and 5.80 MeV levels of Ne20; de-excitation branching
Abstract The ratio Г γ /Г for the 5.63 and 5.80 MeV levels of Ne 20 has been determined to be 0.077 (±0.008) and −4 , respectively, by using the C 12 (C 12 , α)Ne 20 reaction and determining the fraction of the events in which the alpha-particle and the Ne 20 recoil are present in coincidence at the kinematically correct angles. In both cases these results in themselves are shown to imply radiative E1 transition (5.63→1.63 and 5.80→0, respectively) probabilities ⪡5 × 10 −5 Weisskopf units. When taken together with the life-time for the 5.63 MeV level measured by Evans et al . values of Г( E1 ) ≲ 5 × 10 −6 and Г α ≈ 6% of the particle estimate are obtained for this state.
