Solenoid Capture Workshop, 29–30 November 2010

Workshop starts on November 29, 1PM, Berkner Hall Room C.

The Solenoid Capture Workshop will bring together scientist and engineers interested in exploring solutions for the design and implementation of solenoid capture systems. Such systems are being considered for a variety of applications in which the efficient capture of secondary particles issuing from primary proton beam/target interactions is a premium. Potential users of this type of system include the Mu2e, COMET, MUSIC experiments as well as the PRISM, Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider facilities. The agenda will include presentations but ample time will be devoted to questions and discussions.
