Title: Further Progress on a Design for a Super-B Interaction Region

Conference ·
OSTI ID:952968

We present an improved design for a SuperB interaction region. The new design minimizes local bending of the two colliding beams by separating all beam magnetic elements near the Interaction Point (IP). The total crossing angle at the IP is increased from 48 mrad to 60 mrad. The first magnetic element is a six slice Permanent Magnet (PM) quadrupole with an elliptical aperture allowing us to increase the vertical space for the beam. This magnet starts 36 cm from the Interaction Point (IP). This magnet is only seen by the Low-Energy Beam (LEB), the High-Energy Beam (HEB) has a drift space at this location. This allows the preliminary focusing of the LEB which has a smaller beta y* at the IP than the HEB. The rest of the final focusing for both beams is achieved by two super-conducting side-by-side quadrupoles (QD0 and QF1). These sets of magnets are enclosed in a warm bore cryostat located behind the PM quadrupole for the LEB. We describe this design for the interaction region.
