1-1. For the construction of a test beam line, considering surrounding situations, it is necessary that the measure is continuously taken as the main subject, and demand it.
Overview
In the KEK B ring Fuji linear part, utilizing Bremsstrahlung g-rays from the 8 GeV HER, we plan to construct an electron beam line of approximately 3 GeV to serve as test beam for the development of various kinds of measuring equipment.
- High-energy g-ray (Bremsstrahlung) is generated by the reaction of remaining gas (CO, 3x10-8 Pa) with the HER beam (1.3 A).
- In the upper stream of the Fuji intersection part, a comparatively strong polarized electric magnet (BX1E.1) is set at a straight part of 100 m and its terminal.
- By optimizing the shape of the beam pipe in the polarized electromagnet, g-rays can be taken out with a small loss to utilize as a comparatively collimated beam.
