The Beam Dump in the Slow External Proton Beam (SEB) Experimental Area at the AGS
- Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Upton, NY (United States)
The beam dump for the residual protons in the SEB experimental area at the AGS is designed for 30 GeV/c protons at an intensity of 1012 protons per pulse against the possibility of the full beam being deposited in the beam dump. Such a shield providing reasonable experimental access to targets becomes rather massive and inflexible. Since the problem of shielding the nuclear cascade and that of shielding against muons are rather different the beam stop has been designed as a massive steel basic shield to stop the nuclear cascade. Concrete and/or steel are to be added around this basic shield to cut down the muon and neutron fluxes as required by the various experiments. This note is concerned with the massive steel basic shield for the nuclear cascade.
