A DOUBLE-FOCUSSING, ALTERNATE-GRADIENT, MAGNETIC SPECTROMETER FOR MOMENTA UP TO 800 Mev/c

Journal Article · · Nuclear Instr. & Methods
A 40 deg deflecting magnetic spectrometer has been built for use in experiments with the 1.1 Bev photon beam of the Fiascati electrosynchrotron. It consists of two strongfocusing alternite-gradient pole sectors, the first producing a field index n = +25 and the second n = --20, assembled on a single yoke with no straight section in the middle. The curvature radius being 250 cm, a dispersion results of 0.03/cm, and focusing in both horizontal and vertical planes is obtained at 261 cm from the source position. The deflection is horizontal, and angular distributions can be measured from 0 to 180 deg without allowing the primary beam to strike the magnet. Calibration measurements with a Po/sup 210/ alpha source which extended 5 cm horizontally and 2.5 cm vertically have given 0.0056 steradians as the available solid angle, and have confirmed the position of the conjugate points.
