Description
The ESSnuSB project aims to generate an intense neutrino beam and the associated muon flux, using a 5 MW high-power proton driver, requiring precise and reliable transport of the accumulated beam to the target station. To achieve this, a dedicated transfer line guides the extracted protons from the accumulator toward the neutrino beam direction while meeting strict geometric constraints.
The beam transfer line accommodates horizontal and vertical angular offsets of 16.8° and 2.29° using a compact sequence of horizontal and vertical dipoles, with quadrupoles ensuring controlled beam size and minimal losses. Simulations show that a lattice just over one hundred meters long successfully preserves beam quality and aligns the beam with the required neutrino direction. This guarantees stable, low-loss delivery of the beam to the downstream target system.
